Detroit Lions LB Jack Campbell ‘took minimal time off’ during the offseason and returned ‘further along than what I expected,’ according to linebackers coach Kelvin Sheppard.
‘He’s exceeded my expectations, which were already high. He’s come back further along than what I expected. This player you can tell he dove right back into it (after last season ended). He even told me he took minimal time off. I’m sure his fiancee hated it. But he got right back, engulfed in ball and it’s paying off for him right now. With Alex (Anzalone) being out the majority of the offseason, Jack led the huddle, made the calls and everybody looked to him. He was making the checks, and to be honest, he set the tone for the offseason defensively,’ Sheppard told the team’s website in the spring.
