Since there have been so many changes since I originally posted this, below is an updated version of the Lions' list of head coach candidates. I decided to go ahead and add Brian Billick to the list, even though there are conflicting reports about whether or not he is actually a candidate. I tend to think he isn't, but I added him to the list anyways. I did the same with Jim Harbaugh, though I don't want to believe he is actually a candidate.
Anyways, here is the updated version of the list:

| Leslie Frazier | Vikings | Defensive Coordinator | Yes (January 9) |
| Jason Garrett | Cowboys | Offensive Coordinator | Yes (January 5) |
| Jerry Gray | Redskins | Secondary Coach | Yes (January 2) |
| Jim Harbaugh | Stanford | Head Coach | TBD |
| Mike Heimerdinger | Titans | Offensive Coordinator | TBD |
| Josh McDaniels | Patriots | Offensive Coordinator | TBD |
| Mike Mularkey | Falcons | Offensive Coordinator | TBD |
| Ron Rivera | Chargers | Defensive Coordinator | TBD |
| Rex Ryan | Ravens | Defensive Coordinator | TBD |
| Jim Schwartz | Titans | Defensive Coordinator | Yes (January 3) |
