The Detroit Lions added former Stanford head coach David Shaw to a revamped coaching staff on Tuesday as their passing game coordinator.

Shaw, 52, was a four-time Pac-12 Coach of the Year at Stanford from 2011-22. With a record of 96-54, he resigned as the winningest coach in Cardinal history.

Joining head coach Dan Campbell’s staff marks Shaw’s first formal position since leaving Stanford. He spent the 2024 NFL season as a senior personnel executive with the Denver Broncos but hasn’t coached in the NFL since 2005.

Shaw’s NFL experience includes stints as an assistant with the Philadelphia Eagles (1997), then-Oakland Raiders (1998-2001) and Baltimore Ravens (2002-05).

The Lions lost offensive coordinator Ben Johnson (Chicago Bears) and defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn (New York Jets) to head coaching positions following a franchise-record 15-win season in 2024.

In addition to Shaw and new OC John Morton and new DC Kelvin Sheppard, the staff changes announced Tuesday include hiring Tashard Choice as running backs coach and moving Scottie Montgomery from RBs coach to assistant head coach and wide receivers coach.
