Summary

On this episode of Off the Edge with Cam Jordan, Cam sits down with his former teammate, current Lions linebacker Alex Anzalone, fresh off a massive win where the Lions put up 52 points on the Titans.

Alex opens up about Detroit's incredible journey to reach the top of the NFC and the pivotal role head coach Dan Campbell has played in building a winning culture. He reveals an early conversation with Dan Campbell when he first joined the team, reflecting on the challenges and vision shared during the team’s rebuilding years. Alex also highlights the impact of defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn, whose leadership has been instrumental in pushing players to reach their peak.

Cam wraps up with his thoughts on the Colts' decision to bench quarterback Anthony Richardson after visibly tapping out and removing himself from the Texans game for feeling “tired” and shares a personal message to Saints fans as his team works to rebound from their current 2-6 record.
