Although Dan Campbell played in the NFL for more than 20 years, his longest relationship is with his wife.
Holly Campbell and the head coach of the Detroit Lions have been wed for more than 20 years. After Dan accepted the coaching position in 2021, the couple—who are parents to Cody and Piper—moved to Detroit, Michigan, as a family.
Dan told The Athletic in August 2022 that he had wanted to obtain an interview when the role was first advertised in 2018, but it wasn’t his time.
Holly described his feelings when he didn’t receive the part to the source, saying, “You kind of go through that feeling that the one job I really wanted is the one I’m never going to get.”
