Lions hire David Shaw as their passing game coordinator


The Lions’ coaching staff was decimated this offseason, but they are starting to fill in holes.

The team agreed to terms on a multiyear deal with former Stanford head coach David Shaw on Thursday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Media reports. Shaw will serve as the Lions’ passing game coordinator.

Shaw, 52, worked with new offensive coordinator John Morton at three previous stops. The two were together with the Raiders (1998-2001) and the Broncos (2024).

Shaw, who was a Broncos’ senior personnel executive last season, interviewed for the Bears’ head coaching job that went to former Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson.

Shaw was Stanford’s head coach from 2011-22, compiling a 96-54 record with the Cardinal and three Pac-12 conference titles. Before returning to his alma mater to coach in 2007, he was an NFL assistant with the Eagles, Raiders, and Ravens.





The Detroit Lions have made a big move in their coaching staff by hiring David Shaw as their passing game coordinator. Shaw, who previously served as the head coach at Stanford University, brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to the role.

Known for his innovative offensive schemes and ability to develop quarterbacks, Shaw is expected to bring a new level of creativity and efficiency to the Lions’ passing game. With his track record of success in the college ranks, Detroit fans are eager to see what he can do at the professional level.

Shaw’s hiring is seen as a bold and strategic move by the Lions’ front office, as they look to improve their offense and compete in a tough NFC North division. With Shaw’s expertise and leadership, the Lions are hopeful that they can take their passing game to the next level and find success in the upcoming season.
