Our 2024 Detroit Lions roster preview series continues with the most tenured Lions player on the roster. It’s every NFL team’s dream to draft a left tackle and have that player hold down the position for a decade. While we’re not quite there yet, it’s been eight years since the Lions drafted Taylor Decker, and…
We all know the Detroit Lions have a solid offensive line. It was a huge reason for their success last year, and it’s why they aren’t expected to regress this year.

Sometimes, it’s just a player who went completely overlooked in training camp.
With the Detroit Lions’ recent success, they have surged in popularity, not only in the state of Michigan, but all around the world. In 2022, HBO’s Hard Knocks helped introduce football fans to the many personalities in the Lions’ locker room behind the scenes, and what they found was an extremely likable coach, an influx…
