The Detroit Lions are in the market for a new defensive line coach. Terrell Williams, who served in that role in 2024, is heading to New England to become the defensive coordinator of the Patriots.
Williams is reuniting with Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel, who took over last week. The two worked together in Tennessee from 2018 through 2023 with Vrabel as the head coach and Williams the defensive line coach with the Titans.

Williams spent one year in Detroit after taking over for John Scott, who was dismissed after one season. Williams was also Detroit’s run game coordinator. The next defensive line coach will be Detroit’s fourth in as many seasons.
No word on the fate of assistant defensive line coach Cameron Davis, who has been with the Lions for three years.
