Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell has been forced to sell his home in Oakland County due to security reasons.
Campbell has overseen a resurgence in the Motor City, with the Lions regaining prominence under his tutelage and going as far as the NCF Championship game last season. Still, he hasn’t been afforded the privacy he wants and had cause to leave his home and put it up for sale.
The coach was recently interviewed by Crain’s Detroit Business and disclosed that he and his wife are relocating because of concerns prompted by their address getting leaked after a Lions loss.
Campbell seemed regretful as he admitted that he was in a great neighborhood and owned a beautiful property that became untenable once folks discovered he lived there.
“The neighborhood, everything (is positive),” he said. “There’s plenty of space, it’s on 2 acres, the home is beautiful. It’s just that people figured out where we lived when we lost.”
Dan Campbell Can Hardly Do Any Wrong In Detroit
Campbell is royalty in Detroit after fostering a Lions turnaround. Prior to last season, the team had only reached the NFC Championship Game once and was just one-half of a football game away from a Super Bowl appearance.
While there isn’t any known threat against Campbell, it’s better to exercise caution if his address has become general knowledge. It’s either leave or retain a top security team.
According to LionsWire, the home has been put up for $4.5 million, so Campbell and his family should come into a nice sum soon enough.

One of the officers involved in the detainment of Tyreek Hill was handed a stiff punishment on the same day the Miami Dolphins wide receiver was forced to the ground and placed in handcuffs in a shocking encounter with law enforcement.
According to department director Stephanie V. Daniels, the officer, who is attached to the Miami-Dade Police Department, has been placed on administrative leave.
“Following the incident involving Tyreek Hill, I have initiated an Internal Affairs investigation to ensure a thorough review of the matter,” Daniels said in a statement, per NFL Media’s Tom Pelissero. “One of the officers involved in the incident has been placed on administrative duties while the investigation is conducted.
“I’m committed to transparency and accountability to the community with any situation involving my officers.”
The wide receiver was the talk of the football world on Sunday morning after he was seen getting apprehended by several police officers just a block away from Hard Rock Stadium ahead of the Fins’ Week 1 opener against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
