Lions coach Dan Campbell sells his home in the suburbs of Detroit to gain more privacy.
“There’s plenty of room, it’s on two acres, the house is beautiful,” Campbell told Crain’s Detroit Business. “It’s just that people found out where we lived when we lost.”
He did not elaborate, but Bloomfield Township police said “any form of intimidation will not be tolerated.”
“We hope that everyone, including fans, will respect the privacy of individuals and their families,” police said.
Campbell and his wife, Holly, listed the 7,800-square-foot Bloomfield Hills home for sale this week for $4.5 million. A deal was expected to close within 24 hours, Crain’s reported.
Campbell was hired by the Lions in 2021. After a 3-13-1 record that season, the team has become one of the best in the NFL and has the NFC Championship Game last January.
Campbell’s home was built in 2013 for Igor Larionov, a member of the Hockey Hall of Fame who played for the Detroit Red Wings.
The likely buyers are “huge” Lions fans, said Ashley Crain, who is representing Campbell and the buyers in the sale.
