Dan Campbell Helps Daughter Move Out, Wins Hearts in Metro Detroit

Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell continues to charm fans not just on the field, but off it too. Since taking over the team, now owned by Sheila Ford Hamp, Campbell has become a beloved figure throughout Metro Detroit.

Recently, he and his wife Holly were seen attending a Detroit Pistons playoff game and rocking out at an AC/DC concert—appearances that only added to his local legend status.

But over the weekend, Campbell drew attention for something much more low-key and personal. A video shared by his wife on Instagram—and quickly picked up by fans online—shows him lending a hand to their daughter, Piper, as she moved out of her school housing.

In the clip, Campbell is seen loading one of Piper’s prized belongings—a giant LoveSac beanbag chair—into the back of his truck. He carefully positions it, hops into the vehicle, and double-checks that it fits snugly before driving off.

WXYZ Detroit’s Brad Galli shared the moment on X, noting, “Dan Campbell helped his daughter move out of school—and that included squeezing a LoveSac into his truck.”

The wholesome footage quickly won praise online. One fan commented, “That is hilarious!” while another simply called him a “Legend.” Others applauded the coach with messages like, “Proud of you, Coach!”

As Campbell gears up for what fans hope will be a third consecutive NFC North title—and possibly a Super Bowl run—his grounded, family-man image continues to endear him to the Detroit faithful
