This is the second most interesting fact about the Lions. The most interesting is that the last head coach of the Lions to be the head coach of another NFL team after he was fired/resigned from coaching the Lions is Buddy Parker.
Buddy Parker quit in 1956 and was later the head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Since then, every Lions head coach never became the head coach of another NFL team.
If you get fired by the Lions, your career is over.

Also there was that time the NFL went from 15 to 16 games a season and the Lions were the first team ever to go 0-16 lmao
Lions were indeed the first to go 0-16, but it was in 2008, 30 years after the regular season was changed from 14 to 16 games.
