When we got to the off-season, the Detroit Lions made a few different moves. They signed Kevin Zeitler to improve the offensive line and they traded for Carlton Davis to get the secondary corrected. It’s only been a few weeks of training camp but it’s starting to feel like signing cornerback Amik Robertson is their
The latest episode of the Detroit Lions Podcast heads to the mailbag. Faithful patrons of the show had questions about a lot of different Lions topics, and the goal was to answer as thoroughly as possible. Among the topics covered in the mailbag, which was recorded on the Thursday ahead of Detroit’s second preseason game:
Let this serve as a warning: if you’re a Detroit Lions fan who cannot handle seeing the team lose, not even in the preseason, you should probably avoid watching even one play of Saturday afternoon’s exhibition matchup with the Chiefs in Kansas City. It’s almost certain to not end well on the scoreboard for the
The Justin Simmons-to-Detroit dreams are now officially over. Every Lions fan’s favorite free agent safety is off the market. Simmons, who has spent his entire 8-year career playing safety in Denver, has signed with the Atlanta Falcons. It’s a one-year deal worth $8 million for Simmons, a second-team All-Pro in four of the last five
Now, as the Lions look ahead to the 2024 season, they are a force to be reckoned with as they continue their quest for a Super Bowl championship. But as these two teams prepare for Saturday’s game, the biggest story coming out of practice this week isn’t kicker Harrison Butker’s new contract, it’s the devastating
Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell has made it clear that the team doesn’t intend to play many starters in the upcoming preseason bout with the Kansas City Chiefs. “We may get a couple of (starting) d-linemen going here against the Chiefs that didn’t play last week. Offense is probably pretty set here,” Campbell told 97.1…
For all intents and purposes, the Detroit Lions training camp is over. Wednesday’s session was the last session open to any fans and the final practice before the second preseason game, which goes down Saturday afternoon in Kansas City. I was at every session except the very first one and the non-contact walkthrough on the
The Detroit Lions’ SAM linebacker position isn’t for everybody. This offseason alone, the Lions have attempted to give those duties to both Mathieu Betts and James Houston, before scaling back those complicated roles from both defenders to allow them to focus on just being a pass rusher. But for Derrick Barnes, the SAM linebacker position…

Back in late April, the Lions emphasized cornerback in the draft. Terrion Arnold, the team’s first rounder from Alabama, was supposed to be able to solve some of the secondary issues. Now, it’s unclear whether he’ll be ready to play in the first game. Arnold suffered a chest injury during Monday’s practice. By Wednesday, he
We’re almost to cut down time and if you’ve been following the Detroit Lions or any other team in the league, then you know crazy things can happen during that time. Stuff like a team cutting or trading a guy that’s been around for a long time. One NFL analyst thinks the Lions could be
As we sat in the press room on day three of the 2024 NFL Draft, there was some talk about how weird it was that LSU defensive lineman Mekhi Wingo was still on the board. This was someone that was expected to go as high as the the third-round by some. Yet, here he was
Bears Lions Lions QB Nate Sudfeld had a rough start to his first preseason action this year where he missed four of his first five pass attempts and picked up a first down in just one of his first six drives. Detroit HC Dan Campbell needs to see more out of Sudfeld but praised his
If there’s one thing that we’ve been talking about all offseason with the Detroit Lions it’s that they need receiver help. It’s not just us at A to Z Detroit, ESPN analysts say the Lions biggest remaining need is receiver, the Athletic said their biggest concern with the Lions is the hole in the receiving
It’s been kind of a rough week for the Detroit Lions’ secondary. Both rookie cornerbacks Terrion Arnold and Ennis Rakestraw left practice with injuries on Monday. Both injuries seem to be minor and we should see both guys on Week 1, but it’s tough to lose them. On top of that undrafted rookie Morice Norris
It’s a 2024 NFL betting preview but with a preamble. *Spoilers ahead* Howard Ratner, portrayed by Adam Sandler and the tragic hero (?) of the Safdie brother’s 2019 film Uncut Gems, is a compulsive gambler. Over the course of the film, Ratner’s life spirals further and further out of control as he robs Peter to…
The Detroit Lions head to Arrowhead to take on the Kansas City Chiefs for their Week 2 matchup of the preseason. While most of the starters are going to be rested—especially on the offensive side of the ball—one of the most promising developments of the week has been Hendon Hooker’s recovery from a concussion he…
In a roster move that slid under the radar because it took place just before Wednesday’s practice, the Detroit Lions added cornerback Javelin Guidry to the den. Guidry spent the last four seasons with the New York Jets, including the entire 2023 season on the Jets’ injured reserve. The 5-foot-9 Guidry immediately takes the throne
Second-year running back Jahmyr Gibbs is expected to be a massive part of what the Detroit Lions do on offense in 2024. If the Lions make the Super Bowl this season — as they are one of the favorites to do so — Gibss will likely be a big reason why. That’s why everyone at
