From Brian Manzullo at the Detroit Free Press:
“Heath Evans, a former NFL fullback now working as an analyst for Fox’s NFL coverage, says three unnamed Lions last fall told him stories of [defensive tackle Ndamukong] Suh trying to establish dominance in the locker room, even over coach Jim Schwartz, who was fired late last month after a disappointing 7-9 season.
“’The consistent message that came out of there is that Suh was uncontrollable and that he would constantly do things to kind of show his power over Jim Schwartz, whether it was team meetings, showing up late, or whatever it may be,’ Evans told Matt Dery of 105.1 FM in Detroit. ‘When you don’t put players in line, I don’t care how great they are.’”
Looks like new head coach Jim Caldwell has his work cut out for him.
