The Detroit Lions have hired Darrell Bevell as their new offensive coordinator.

Bevell replaces Jim Bob Cooter, whose contract was not renewed by the team.

The Lions ranked 23rd in rushing yards per game (103.8), 20th in passing yards per game (223.5) and 24th in points per game (19.38) this past season.

Bevell served as the offensive coordinator for the Seattle Seahawks from 2011 to 2017.

The NFL has just two teams ranking in the top-10 in DVOA on both Offense and Defense at the end of the regular season in the Los Angeles Chargers and Indianapolis Colts.

The Chiefs, Steelers, Seahawks, Rams, Packers, Falcons, Patriots and Saints also rank in the top-10 on offense, while the Cowboys, Jaguars, Texans, Bears, Vikings, Broncos, Ravens and Bills are in the top-10 on defense.

The Chiefs rank first in the NFL in both Total DVOA and Weighted DVOA.

The Detroit Lions won't renew the contract of offensive coordinator Jim Bob Cooter.

Cooter, 34, had been Detroit's offensive coordinator for three-and-a-half seasons, including across the transition from Jim Caldwell to Matt Patricia after last season.

The Lions ranked in the bottom-third of the league in most offensive categories throughout the season.

Matthew Stafford has been mentioned as a possible trade candidate this offseason, but he would prefer to remain with the Detroit Lions.

"I think there's something special about a guy getting a chance to play his entire career in one place," Stafford said ahead of Sunday's season finale at Green Bay. "Not many guys get to do that these days. I would love to be one of those guys."

The Lions signed Stafford to a five-year, $135 million contract extension with $92 million guaranteed prior to the 2017 season, with the first year of the extension coming in 2018.

Detroit would incur a $30 million cap hit if they trade him.

Stafford said he hasn't been asked for input about the future of the organization. Stafford would like that to change. 

"Obviously I've been with this team for a long time, seen a lot of people come in and out," Stafford said. "Probably have some unique perspective on some things but at the same time, you know, those guys' jobs are solely to do those kind of things and my job is to score touchdowns and get our offense in the end zone.

"So that's what I'll focus on."

Matt Patricia is confident he will remain as head coach of the Detroit Lions next season.

Patricia enters Week 17 of his first season with the Lions holding a 5-10 record.

"I'm pretty confident," Patricia said, via the Detroit News. "Everything for me, right now, is just keep moving forward and getting ready for the game this weekend. Like I said, I meet with Mrs. Ford every week, so they've been great. Her and her family have been great."

The Detroit Lions practiced in the snow this week despite not having a cold-weather game scheduled for a month.

"I don't know. I mean, I'm just out there trying to stay warm, really," cornerback Darius Slay said. "Like you said, we got indoor games. Obviously, it doesn't even matter."

LeGarrette Blount hinted that the team practiced outside to prepare for future cold-weather games.

"I mean, towards the end of the season, we're going to be in Green Bay and then we're going to be in Buffalo," Blount said. "You know, so, you don't want to try and get prepared for those the week of. It's a preparation thing, so you want to be ready for those whenever the time comes. You don't want to have to wait and practice outside for two days or three days and then have to go there and it's way colder than what you expect it to be.

"So, like I said, we strap it up and we go out there and grind and whatever it is, it is, and we just got to go handle it."

The Philadelphia Eagles have acquired Golden Tate from the Detroit Lions for a third-round pick.

Tate, 30, signed with the Lions before the 2014 season and is in the final year of his contract.

He had 90 catches in each of his four full seasons with Detroit and had 1,000 yards in three of those years.

The New York Giants have agreed to trade defensive tackle Damon Harrison to the Detroit Pistons for a fifth round pick.

The 29-year-old Harrison is in his seventh year in the league. He signed a five-year, $46.25 million contract with the Giants in 2016.
