Long before he “Restored the Roar” at long last to the Detroit Lions, Motor City Dan Campbell was just a fun-loving backup tight end for the New York Giants.
“I can remember going to biker bars in New York City with him and Holly and my wife Brill and a whole group of people, and just having a helluva time,” NBC’s Jason Garrett told Serby Says. “He always told great stories, did great imitations, and just a great guy to hang out with. On a Monday night we’d go watch ‘Monday Night Football,’ there’d be 12 of us. He knew these biker bars in the city. I didn’t know they existed in the city.
Campbell can still make everyone laugh, but he has made sure that no one is laughing at the Lions anymore. Garrett recalls sitting down with Campbell before the start of the season and coming away impressed with who the Lions were and what they were becoming.Dan Campbell spent four seasons as a Giants tight end after they selected him in the third round of the 1999 NFL Draft.“‘When you’re building this team, it seems to me that you’re building it in your likeness,’” Garrett told Campbell.
Accorsi signed left guard Rich Seubert as an undrafted free agent in 2001. Seubert is now the head coach at Watchung Hills Regional High School in Warren, N.J., and is a Giants and Lions fan because of Campbell.“He was a tackle playing tight end, he wasn’t a tight end catching balls, right? He was a blocking tight end — hand in the dirt, come off the ball, hit you in the face and smile about it. Old-school throwback slash tight end.
“He can’t be stopped,” nose tackle Liam McNeill told Serby Says. “And there’s not anyone in the country that can stop him, I promise you. His presence, his aura on the field is just different. When he’s out there he’s a madman, he’s a force.”“It doesn’t matter when, where, what, it’s just like we’re here to handle business, we’re not gonna let you or the man in front of me beat me,” McNeill said.
