Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell made a point to give one of the game balls from Sunday's 45-21 win over the Arizona Cardinals to play-by-play announcer Dan Miller.

Miller's wife, Cynthia, died Saturday . He wasn't on the radio call in Week 5, with Jason Benetti temporarily taking over.

During his postgame press conference, Campbell expressed his support for the Miller family and said the Lions would set aside the game ball for Dan:

Lions quarterback Jared Goff also got choked up while saying the team was "thinking about Dan." He called the broadcaster "an important piece of the culture here."

Miller has been in the booth for Lions games since the 2005 season.
