At least Bob Quinn and Matt Patricia got to enjoy their Thanksgiving dinner before their day off.
It was the Thanksgiving L that caused them both to be fired.
The Detroit Lions fired head coach Matt Patricia and general manager Bob Quinn on Saturday after two straight seasons under-.500 and a third season where the team was again under-.500 at midseason.
Patricia’s record was 13-29-1 since taking over as the Lions coach in 2018. Quinn had been the team’s GM since 2016, and the Lions were 31-43-1 during his tenure.
Lions offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell will be the team’s interim head coach, a source told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
