Lions coach Dan Campbell lists home for sale after alleged pranks and harassment

Lions coach Dan Campbell is selling his suburban Detroit home to gain more privacy after his address was reportedly made public.

Fox 2 from Detroit reported that when Campbell’s address became public, he was harassed and made the target of pranks. Fox 2 reported that Campbell filed a police report about the harassment after the Lions lost to the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC title game in January.

“There’s plenty of room, it’s on two acres, the house is beautiful,” Campbell told Crain’s Detroit Business. “It’s just that people found out where we lived when we lost.”

The Bloomfield Township Police Department did not specifically name Campbell but issued a statement saying it was “committed to the safety of all of our residents. Harassment of any kind will not be tolerated. We hope that everyone, including fans, will respect the privacy of individuals and their families.”

Campbell and his wife, Holly, listed the 7,800-square-foot home in Bloomfield Hills, a northern suburb of Detroit, for sale this week for $4.5 million. A deal was pending within 24 hours, Crain’s reported.

Campbell was hired by the Lions in 2021. After a 3-13-1 record that season, the team has emerged as one of the best in the NFL and reached the NFC championship game this past January.

Campbell’s home was built in 2013 for Igor Larionov, a Hockey Hall of Famer who played for the Detroit Red Wings. The likely buyers are “huge” Lions fans, said Ashley Crain, who is representing Campbell and the buyers in the sale.
