Detroit Lions general manager Brad Holmes has managed to find some diamonds in the NFL Draft. While he’s done an amazing job with his first-round picks, what has made him a special drafter is what he’s done in Day 3 of the draft. He’s managed to find the likes of Amon-Ra St. Brown, Derrick Barnes,…
We’re less than a month out from the start of training camp for the Detroit Lions, and our roster series preview rolls along with a look at Brodric Martin—a project that has yet to develop. Will Martin be the latest Day 2 draft pick of Brad Holmes to break through in Year 3, or has…
It’s been a few weeks since Detroit Lions center Frank Ragnow announced his retirement at the age of 29. Fans have had some time to process the news and go through the stages of grief for the loss. Ragnow may have only played seven years with the Lions, but he will undoubtedly go down as…
As the temperature reaches a fever pitch, so too does the anticipation for the Detroit Lions to return to their facilities at Allen Park for training camp. Our roster preview series continues with a look at wide receiver Jameson Williams, a former first-round pick whose first few seasons were defined as much by promise as…
I’m certain just the title of this article will bring some emotional reactions from some, but it says something that this is a legitimate question for the Detroit Lions roster. The truth of the matter is that the Lions roster remains stacked, and it’s not just at specific positions. It’s front to back.
As the Detroit Lions offense adjusts to losing a few key pieces, one analyst is calling Jared Goff the most important player in the entire NFC. “I think Jared Goff is the single-most important player in the NFC this season,” NFL analyst Peter Schrager said on ESPN’s “Get Up” this week. “There has been a…
With all of the moving parts of the Detroit Lions’ offensive line, it’s natural to wonder how that’s going to impact every facet of the team. The Lions have prided themselves on their offensive line, often referring to it as the engine under the hood for the entire team. With some uncertainty following the departures…
For the first time during the Brad Holmes-Dan Campbell era, there isn’t a question at the kicker position. For a 40-year stretch, the Detroit Lions have been spoiled at kicker, leaning on Eddie Murray from 1980 to 1991, then turning to Lions legend Jason Hanson from 1992 to 2012, and finally deploying Matt Prater from…
It’s still over a month until the Detroit Lions will kick off the NFL preseason against the Los Angeles Chargers for the 2025 Hall of Fame Game, but it’s never too early to speculate about it. While the Lions are retaining a large majority of their players from last year, there are a few significant…
As expected, the Detroit Lions are going to get a head start on training camp ahead of all but one team. This spring, the Lions opted out of two weeks of OTAs and three mandatory minicamp practices in order to accommodate for being in an extra preseason game—the Hall of Fame Game on Thursday, July…

With so much focus on what’s to come—life after Frank Ragnow, a healthy defense making a big impression early on, and another breakout season for Jameson Williams on the horizon—it’s easy to lose sight of just how impactful Sam LaPorta was in his second season. A historic rookie campaign put him on the map, but…
The Detroit Lions enter 2025 with an absolute gauntlet of a schedule. They return to what looks to once again be one of the strongest divisions in the NFL, as well as playing powerhouse teams like the Baltimore Ravens, Kansas City Chiefs, and Philadelphia Eagles. With so many premier opponents, it’s easy to lose sight…
Blink and you miss it. With all the hype surrounding young quarterbacks, Jared Goff still stands as the presumed top dog in the NFC North. That may change at some point, but when that might be is always a question. Goff will have to deal with a new playcaller, but so so, too, will Caleb…
The Detroit Lions have announced the dates for their 2025 training camp, which are open to the public.

In true Campbell fashion, he often cites how instrumental mentors like the legendary Bill Parcells was for his development and how much he learned coaching under Sean Payton in New…
The Detroit Lions offense has been the biggest reason for the franchise’s resurgence over the past three years. The team just barely missed the playoffs in 2022, riding the high of the fifth-ranked offense (26.6 points per game). The next season, Detroit moved to 12-5 thanks, again, to their fifth-ranked offense (27.1). Last year, the…
Last week, free agent defensive end Za’Darius Smith declared that he wants to re-sign with the Detroit Lions, leading many fans to get excited about finally adding to the team’s defensive end room.
