Justin Rogers of Detroit Football Network has confirmed it with his sources that offensive line coach Hank Fraley is staying with the Lions.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-1\">NFL Network&#8217;s Tom Pelissero has reported Fraley is not only staying, he&#8217;s getting the additional title of run game coordinator.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/GiF36WGXkAATohp?format=jpg&amp;name=900x900\" alt=\"Image\" \/><\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-3\">Fraley was seen as a potential candidate to follow Johnson to the Chicago Bears, but that buzz had faded in recent days. He had two interviews with the Seattle Seahawks for their offensive coordinator job, which affirmed he was a serious candidate.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-4\">Fraley&#8217;s wife Danielle posted on Facebook Friday afternoon from her location at the Lions&#8217; practice facility. Reports are all well and good, but no source is as good as a man&#8217;s wife.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-5\">&#8220;Year 8 loading,\u201d the post read. \u201cDid you guys really think we would leave for Chicago?!?!? Our hearts are in Detroit!!!\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/GiF0HDUWoAAkBHC?format=jpg&amp;name=medium\" alt=\"Image\" \/><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"inline-text-7\">Frank Ragnow gets his wish for Hank Fraley to stay with the Lions<\/h2>\n<p id=\"inline-text-8\">On Sunday, after the Lions&#8217; season-ending loss, Frank Ragnow and Penei Sewell both spoke about their connection with Fraley. Ragnow spoke uniquely about the direct impact Fraley has had on him since they both arrived to the Lions in 2018.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-9\">\u201cI don\u2019t think I could play in this league without the guy. He\u2019s everything to me. He\u2019s been there since Day 1,\u201d Ragnow said. \u201cIn this league, there are a lot of coaches, but there\u2019s not many coaches like him that empower his players and really it is an open dialogue&#8230;Talking about how we see things, and not only him giving me advice, but me telling him how I see it and him being willing to listen. I think that\u2019s so rare, and I&#8217;m just so grateful for him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-10\">Ragnow also joked he would leak stories about Fraley to prevent him from leaving.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-11\">&#8220;You refuse to let Hank leave,\u201d Ragnow said. \u201cI haven\u2019t played in this league without Hank and I don\u2019t plan on doing it. I\u2019ll sabotage him, I\u2019ll leak stories, whatever it takes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-12\">Hmm&#8230;.<br \/>\nIn any case, Fraley is staying (cue the Leonardo DiCaprio <em>&#8220;Wolf Of Wall Street&#8221;<\/em> meme) and that cannot be understated as a win for the Lions.<\/p>\n<figure><\/figure>\n<figure><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With as good a source as there can be, the Lions are not losing offensive line coach Hank Fraley.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":11725,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11724","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-detroit-lions"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 -
