Jansen Likes What He Sees From the Staff and Players
New Lions OL Jon Jansen continues to settle in with his new team, and so far he’s happy with what he’s seen from the new coaching staff and thinks that the team is for sure on the same page, an important aspect that has been missing with the Lions.
“I will say that they are doing things in a way that I think will be successful for us,” Jansen said in the Detroit Free Press. “I know coming from a guy who’s trying to make the team, trying to compete, that probably sounds like I’m kissing ass. But I think they’ve stressed to the guys what they want, and they’ve done it in such a way that guys are doing it willingly.
“I think if you can make guys make the right decision and they do it on their own, it really shows that one, there’s good leadership at the top and two, there’s good leadership amongst the players and a sense of urgency, and guys understand they need to get better.”
Jansen spoke at length about how the players have been around, and how they are getting into what is happening with the new coaching staff.
“Everybody’s been a part of everything that’s going on,” said Jansen. “I think when you see that coming in as late as I did, it really shows the dedication that these guys have made and also the stress that the coaches put on it to be here and allow guys to make that decision.”
