A member of the Arizona Cardinals’ football analytics department, Charlie Adkins, has recently left the organization to take on a new role with the Detroit Lions as their senior director of football operations. This news was reported by ESPN’s Seth Walder.
Adkins has been with the Arizona Cardinals for the past seven years, starting as a football operations analyst before moving to the analytics and research department where he has worked for the past five years. In his new position with the Detroit Lions, Adkins will be working closely with Lions COO Mike Disner, who was also previously with the Cardinals.
Although Adkins’ departure is a loss for the Cardinals, it represents a significant promotion for him. During his time with the team, he played a key role in assisting general manager Monti Ossenfort with trade scenarios during the NFL draft. Congratulations to Charlie Adkins on his new position with the Detroit Lions.
