Dan Campbell joined Dallas radio this week, and basically penned a love letter to the city of Detroit.

It’s easy to see from the outside looking in that Dan Campbell is a great fit in Detroit. Not only has he led the Detroit Lions to an unprecedented amount of success over just four years, but his energy, spirit, and attitude all seem to match what has defined Detroit as a community for decades.

It’s one thing to see the fit. It’s another to hear it directly from the man himself. Doing the Texas media rounds this week, Campbell joined the Dallas radio station 96.7 am The Ticket this week, and basically wrote a love letter to the city of Detroit, expressing his gratitude for a job opportunity he calls a perfect fit.

“I belong here. It fits,” Campbell said. “I say it all the time, you don’t know when you’re going to get an opportunity or even if you will at head coach. There’s probably only one team that felt like I was the guy, and I’m there. It’s Detroit. Just everything about it was the right fit for me. From the ownership to the city to the field, the location, the fans, just, man, the blue-collar attitude of this city, it’s just perfect. It fits me like a glove.”

Then he turned his attention to Lions owner Sheila Hamp, and how she has made his life so much easier in Detroit.

“When you’ve got an owner who just tells you, ‘Look, do whatever you need to do, and I will get you whatever you need to have success. Whatever we need from a resources standpoint, I’ll do. I just want you to do it and be yourself.’ When somebody tells you that, I don’t have you worry about what I look like, what I say, I’m just me. I try to coach that way. I try to live that way,” Campbell said. “Man, it’s a blessing. I’m fortunate. I love the gig I’m at, and I have no plans of leaving. But we’ve got to win one (Super Bowl), man. We’ve got to win one, and then once you do that, see if you can win another one, but that’s the goal, to win a Super Bowl.”

Last year, the Lions ensured that this pairing wasn’t going anywhere anytime soon, inking both Campbell and general manager Brad Holmes to extensions that will keep both under contract through the 2027 season.
