[QUOTE="Zero2Cool, post: 44519, member: 43"] [img]http://www.detroitlions.com/photos/athletes/Johnny_Holland.jpg[/img] Johnny Holland was promoted to linebackers coach after serving as a defensive assistant the previous two seasons. He will supervise a youthful corps of linebackers that includes four young and talented players entering their second or third season (Boss Bailey, James Davis, Teddy Lehman and Alex Lewis). All four are expected to solidify the middle of the defense for seasons to come. This season marks Holland’s third year with the Lions and 11th in the NFL. Overall, Holland’s pro experience includes seven years (1987-93) as a player and 10 years (1995-04) as a coach.
