Dan Campbell, head coach of the Detroit Lions, ranks 11th on CBS' list of top NFL coaches entering 2026. Despite leading the Lions to four consecutive winning seasons, including a franchise-best 15-2 record in 2024, Campbell did not secure enough votes to enter the top 10. The list, which highlights the best coaches in the league, features Sean McVay of the Los Angeles Rams at the top. Campbell is positioned third among coaches in the NFC North, behind Ben Johnson of the Chicago Bears and Matt LaFleur of the Green Bay Packers. A strong performance in the upcoming season could bolster Campbell's standing in future rankings.
