In an offseason when their coaching staff has been raided by NFL teams, the Lions are about to lose an important member of their front office to a college team.

Mike Martin, who reportedly will be Notre Dame’s new football GM, spent two decades in the NFL, including helping build the current Detroit Lions roster.

The Detroit Lions' front office and scouting department lost a key figure. On Friday, reports surfaced that Notre Dame is set to hire the Lions' Director of Scouting Advancement Mike Martin as its new general manager.
