Man hearing your name chanted after grinding it out for years must've felt gratifying

[@rjb1987xx]

I don’t think I’d be able to hold it in to be honest with you just imagine for six years teams telling you your not good enough for something you can’t control but Dan never gave up and he’s built for that left tackle role he played great Sunday 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

That must be a great feeling

Hope he’s got a permanent job now. Dude’s earned that.

[@rjb1987xx]

Yes he did the commanders might not be that good but that d line is stacked and he held is own and on that swift run I thought he was mike oher from the blind side for a min lol

[@migueltorcuator2152]

@@rjb1987xx yeah that commanders D line had 3 1st round picks in it & the Lions held their own

[@tucfang2577]

no. when the starter comes back, he'll take the position back. He's a journeyman and on practice squads for a reason. Good but they have better players to start. He would've won it during training camp if he could've.

[@BaronVonBielski]

He’s been awful for the lions though

[@codystubbs6489]

I think he'll be a backup but if he is he'll get paid a good amount

I know him personally and he’s the most humble guy I’ve ever met. Goes back home and helps his wife’s business she owns! I look up to Dan literally and figuratively 😂

[@JNieckarz]

That's great to hear. We can tell Skipper has a huge heart.

[@TotallyTheExpert]

Send skipper love from all of us. We love the big men up front, god know they dont get enough love.

[@irafair3015]

Good on him. He's a walking testimonial for never giving up and being humble when it does happen. I wish more players were like Skip.

Is he actually racist?

[@alexlambert5830]

Man drove that defender to his own end zone

[@AdamTheMuslim.]

@Michael that’s what I was thinking

[@vendingdudes]

@Michael I haven't seen the movie, but I HAVE seen that clip. Hilarious 😄

[@youngtc7754]

Man... I just got CHILLS when they started chanting his name. That definitely IS a "feel good story" right there

[@josephvickrey5396]

His face says it all. I love how his teammates are supporting him. Dan Campbell is a hell of a coach.

[@JaydenLand]

when they cut him on Hard Knocks, and he cried... that shit broke my heart. Glad he got another chance.

[@keepyourjobkeepyourjob7530]

I wouldn't of blamed him for crying ....hearing that chant .. & all you been through..... Way to persevere👍

[@austinwiseman3186]

The emotion in Skips eyes said it all. Dream come true

[@issy6869]

“It’s just a game, what can be so emotional about it?” Everything.

[@riverlindley3460]

This is so deep for me on a few levels. My dad and I are huge Hog fans. Dan Skipper was probably one of my dads favorite players during his time and I remember him telling me it was because he could see how much of a hard working man’s man skip was. Proud of u Big Dan! WPS for life

[@leonelcardenas5847]

I love his attempt at not smiling while being celebrated. Stayed humble as his teammates showed him some well deserved love!!!

[@yourstrulyrolando1928]

Damn that was very wholesome and emotional to see his team chant his name. You can see he was trying not to cry, I don’t blame him! Man worked his a** off for that.

[@cameronnorman6370]

I'm not crying, you are

[@Maidiac214]

Damn onion cutting ninjas in here.

[@happyhappyjoyjoy6497]

Having team give you that love after everything….man that should be a movie

[@jeremyness2395]

Never heard of him but that's pretty freaking awesome and I hope he's able to have at least 3 or 4 years where he doesn't have to worry about being cut because he consistently contributes to a teams chances of success. Keep grinding Skipper

[@victoriaclanton2517]

Humility at it's finest! Hope he's a permanent starter!

[@davidgraham2673]

When your teammates chant your name like that, you know you brought the heat. Congratulations! You earned it the hard way.

[@keithcunningham923]

Having the whole team chanting your name after your first start must have hit him like a ton of bricks. That one moment made all of his struggles worthwhile.

[@jodyrolandconstruction6577]

Met Dan at Bass Pro in Memphis when they played the liberty bowl. Super humble guy and really nice to my family. Glad he’s finally getting a chance to prove his worth.

[@WarNvrChanges]

Love hearing stories like this. You know that’s a moment he will never forget. He’s the real life “The Replacements”

[@theyeetmeister4019]

Dan Campbell just makes me smile bro

[@rjb1987xx]

This is what our city is about guys that never give up I love this story and I’ve been watching the lions for the first time in a while and Dan skipper just gained a fan that block on that swift run reminds me off the blind side movie Dan blocked him for like 10 yards 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾 let’s go lions

“Good job skip. But yeah, you’re still cut”

[@Fam1stCEO]

When was he cut ??🤔🤔 he got a roster after that game … they cut the kicker

[@coywyrick2747]

No matter the record, that's a coach that pays attention to every aspect of the game

“Hey skip, nice freaking job!… Now pack your stuff. Maybe 5th times the charm.”

These are the stories I love the NFL for. SKIP SKIP SKIP SKIP 👏 👏 👏 👏

[@marcstov]

My favorite part of this, other than the tears, is that his teammates supported him. That makes me so happy.

[@Samuel-I]

Dan Campbell is the kind of coach I always enjoyed playing for. No nonsense, I’ve been in your shoes, bloody noses and bone bruises, 3yds and a cloud of dust. He recognize the struggle and hard work.

[@richc5825]

Dan, it's ok to shed a tear. You made it, big man.

Beautiful story, We love you, Skip ONE PRIDE

[@ultimatecontactsports]

That’s freakin awesome!

[@TommyD1213]

That made me smile. Plus, he plays for the Lions so you can root for him without having to worry too much about his team yours out for a playoff spot. If they get a QB, though, watch out. They are building a monster.

[@ALLDAYEVERYDAYKIM]

That's love right there. The League is full of guys who scrap all-day everyday for as long as they can.

I’m a bears fan and I love what Dan Campbell is doing in Detroit. The grit and appreciation for each individual player on and off the 53 man roster. He values all of them. And players see it. I wish a great season for the Lions. And TBH they have become my second favorite team all because of the Hard Knocks and Dan Campbell .
