Quite the opposite reaction here. I may be a lifelong Lions fan, but as somebody who was raised on Michigan football, it is bittersweet to see Tom go. I rooted for him hard when he was in Maize and Blue and when I saw he had to back up Drew Bledsoe upon coming to the NFL, I thought either he learns under this experienced veteran or he never plays a regular season down. But then to see him emerge as a leader and have a career that is, dare I say, unparalleled was remarkable. The longer he stayed in the NFL, the more in awe even I grew of what he became. So thank you, Tom, for giving football a career we will never forget, whether we want to or not. See you in 2028 in Canton.
