As of right now, their…

After initially giving the Lions just one primetime game in 2021 and none in 2022, they took a gamble on Detroit, baking four primetime games into the Lions’ 2023 schedule. The league was rewarded handsomely, as Detroit gained steam as America’s…

On Monday, Jared Goff and the Detroit Lions agreed to a new contract extension that makes the Lions quarterback the highest-paid player in franchise history.

On Day 3 of the NFL Draft, the entire Detroit Lions war room was sporting the team’s new black jerseys, with head coach Dan Campbell’s name and number (89) on the back from his playing days. It was a neat moment, but it also sparked an important question among Lions fans.

The Detroit Lions made a lot of noise ahead of draft day in Detroit when they announced hefty extensions for wide receive Amon-Ra St. Brown and OT Penei Sewell just hours apart. It brought brief relief to Lions fans all over, until it quickly led to the question of where Jared Goff’s extension was. Brad…

According to NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo, the Detroit Lions are signing wide receiver Kaden Davis to their 90-man roster.

Entering the 2024 NFL Draft, there was a sizable group of candidates for the Detroit Lions at pick 29. Detroit would ultimately trade up to 24th overall to select Terrion Arnold, arguably the top defensive back prospect on the board—and perhaps in the draft itself. Yet in the lead up to the Lions’ pick, there…

Detroit Lions second-round pick Ennis Rakestraw Jr. was in the “starting” lineup as the team broke for their first 11-on-11 drills of rookie minicamp, but he may not have been where you would have expected him.

When the Detroit Lions tried—and failed—to re-sign Josh Reynolds in free agency, there was a general feeling that the team would find someone else to replace his production. While Reynolds “only” caught 40 passes for 608 yards and five touchdowns last year, he was also a model player who could play any of the receiver…
