The Detroit Lions had a breakthrough season in 2023, but they are looking to take the next step in 2024. Coach Dan Campbell knows what that step is, and he used a great analogy to convey it. On Thursday, Campbell emphasized that he wants the team to be more adaptable in certain situations this year.
Unfortunately not everyone is going to make the Detroit Lions 53-man roster. It would cool if the roster was bigger and allowed for more players, but that’s not the case. That doesn’t mean the Lions are done with these players though. They can still put them on their 17-man practice squad. Today we’re going to
Today on the show, we’re talking about the Detroit Lions, the NBA Finals, MSU Basketball and more as we were joined by some of our great guests. Throughout our first two hours we were joined in studio by Mike Kimber from Lions Nation Unite so he and Huge could talk all about the Lions in
The Detroit Lions charged through three days of mandatory minicamp at the team’s training facility in Allen Park. I was there for the final two days of action, which saw a lot of emphasis on situational offense/defense and individual position drills. This is so far and away the best Lions roster and team at this
It’s about that time for the Detroit Lions to go on a hiatus until training camp opens up in late July. The Lions do have one more day of OTAs, but that will just be for the young players per Lions’ head coach Dan Campbell. The veterans have done their thing at mandatory minicamp and
The Detroit Lions’ OTAs and mandatory minicamp are out of the way. It’s time for the team to go enjoy the summer sun and do their own private workouts before they have to come right back to Detroit in late July to report to training camp. Until then, we have time to talk about everything
When Alim McNeill thinks about playing alongside veteran DJ Reader, there’s only one thing he can imagine. “In my head it just looks like destruction, to me, honestly,” McNeill said. “There’s no other way I can see it. Every time I close my eyes and visualize it, I just see destruction, honestly.”
Detroit really is the place to be lately, and if you need more proof, look no further than the grand re-opening of Michigan Central Station in Corktown. Situated directly on Michigan Avenue in Detroit, Michigan Central sat dormant for decades before the Fords laid out their plans to bring the iconic building back to life…
The Arizona Cardinals gained nearly $16 million in cap space on Sunday when the release of tackle D.J. Humphries finally took effect on the cap. Teams all around the NFL gained cap space after their post-June 1 designations were finally on the books. So where does that leave everyone? Based on the numbers from Over
The Detroit Lions wrapped up mandatory minicamp on Thursday marking the end of spring workouts for the team’s veterans. The organization will hold a few more OTA practices for their younger players next week, and at their conclusion, the rest of the remaining players will exit for summer break.
With mandatory minicamp wrapping up on Thursday, Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell provided a bit of a health update on a couple of free agent signees who have been out with injuries. Most notably, Campbell offered the first real sense of a timeline for defensive tackle D.J. Reader. Signed as a priority early in
A former second-round pick in this regime’s first draft class, Onwuzurke came in as a swashbuckling pass rusher. Just minutes after his selection, he hopped on a call with beat reporters and said he liked to (expletive) people up. “I just like making them feel like (expletive),” he said that night. Onwuzurike was a quarterback-eater
There was certainly a “last day of school” vibe to the Detroit Lions’ final minicamp practice on Thursday. The practice was the final one for Lions veterans, as next week’s conclusion of voluntary OTAs will feature just the young players. It was essentially a half-day, with offensive linemen working at a walk-through pace. Additionally, there…
