ALLEN PARK -- Yes, Dan Campbell is selling his home because of privacy concerns.
No, he doesn’t want to talk about it.
“No disrespect, man, I don’t even want to go there with any of it,” the Detroit Lions head coach said. “It’s all good. I’ve got a job to do. My primary job is to coach this team and have them prepared every week. I’ve got to do my job, and that’s the sole focus.”
The Lions are 1-1 heading into their game on Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals. But just this week, Campbell listed his Bloomfield Hills home for $4.5 million. He was quoted as saying it was for security reasons after his address was leaked last season. FOX 2 reported the Campbell family was harassed after the NFC championship game loss against San Francisco and a police report was filed.
Despite having to move out of his own home, Campbell still loves this football-mad town.
“I love our fans, our fans our unbelievable,” Campbell said. “There’s nowhere that I would want to be or any other team I would want to coach for. It’s rare to have an environment like we have, and to be able to coach here, play here. I tell our guys that all the time. This is a rare spot. You better enjoy it, because not every place has it like we have it.”
There seems to be a happy ending to this story. Campbell’s home is already pending sale.
