For the second time in a week, the Detroit Lions are losing a front office staffer to the college football ranks.
Days after Lions Director of Scouting Advancement Mike Martin left to become the GM of the Notre Dame Fighting Irish football program, the Lions are losing Director of Football Compliance Jon Dykema. He’s heading to Michigan State to join the Spartans athletic department to become MSU’s executive senior associate AD/student-athlete management and assistant general counsel.
In Detroit, Dykema’s role included overseeing the negotiations of player contracts and assisting with salary cap management. He’s been with the Lions for 15 years, serving in a variety of legal/contractual roles for Detroit.
