Colts' assistant coach Payton McCollum joins Titans staff

Indianapolis Colts defensive assistant coach Payton McCollum was hired by the Tennessee Titans in the role of assistant wide receivers coach.

McCollum spent just one season with the Colts after spending recent seasons at the collegiate level working at Eastern Michigan, Washington, North Carolina Central, North Carolina and Campbell.

McCollum has spent the majority of his coaching career at the collegiate level. However, he did spend two seasons with the Detroit Lions (2016-2017) working as a coaching assistant.

The Titans announced their entire coaching staff under Tuesday new head coach Brian Callahan.

NOTEBOOK: Lions embracing road warrior mentality

It’s Thanksgiving in Detroit and that means it’s a short week to get ready for Thursday’s game at Ford Field against the Chicago Bears.

The Lions have some new injuries they are dealing with from the Colts game, though Campbell seemed optimistic about a few of them. Montgomery (shoulder), Decker (knee, ankle), cornerback Carlton Davis III (knee) and wide receiver Kalif Raymond (foot) left the game.

Decker and Montgomery said afterward they could have returned and should be good to go Thursday. Davis was standing on his leg talking to reporters and said it felt pretty good, but imaging would determine more. Campbell seemed more concerned about Raymond’s injury after the game.

“I don’t know Chicago’s deal yet. I don’t know what they’re dealing with, but I’m sure they’ve got injuries,” Campbell said. “Everybody’s got them, and the league doesn’t care. They make the schedule, and we play this and we roll, you know?

“Seven days later we got Green Bay. So be it, man and that’s the way it rolls, and we’ll be ready. We’ll have our unit ready to go Thursday back home, Thanksgiving, division opponent, and we’ll be locked in and ready to roll.”

Detroit hasn’t won on Thanksgiving since 2016, and that’s a streak they are looking to end Thursday.

“We haven’t won on Thanksgiving in a while and that’s something we want to change,” Goff said.

Pat McAfee on current Colts: ‘They hate me’

Pat McAfee on current Colts: ‘They hate me’

Pat McAfee played for the Indianapolis Colts, broadcasts his popular ESPN show from Indianapolis and has field-level seats for Colts games.

He’s beloved, right? Not lately.

“This current Colts team … I do believe I’m part of enemy camp. They hate me,” he said on NFL Network’s pregame show.

McAfee has openly talked about the Colts’ up-and-down season − including quarterback Anthony Richardson tapping out of a game for one play, and other locker room issues − and some Colts players have responded.

“I don’t think anybody on this Colts team is a fan of old Pat McAfee, and that’s OK, as long as they keep winning,” he said.

NFL Network’s Rich Eisen urged McAfee to pursue a truce with the Colts players, but he wasn’t having it. Of course, McAfee could be channeling his WWE persona here.

“If this war with the Colts players continues, there’s no way I’m spending any more time or money in that thing when I got a baby girl at my house that I can go hang out with,” McAfee said. “It’s quite a situation. It’s very much brewing. It’s very real.

“I’m not that type of guy. That’s not my M.O. I love Indianapolis. I love this city. If they gotta rally around hating me, so be it.”
