Sunday night, two familiar faces helped the NFLPA All-Stars best the NFLPA Hall of Famers on the latest edition of ABC’s Celebrity Family Feud. Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown and safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson joined linebacker Eric Kendricks, cornerback Trevon Diggs, and quarterback Jacoby Brissett or a good ol’ game of the Feud and…
In this edition of Bold Bites, I take on a bold prediction that Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff will have the best season of his career in 2023. In the debut of this series last week, I talked about how rookie tight end Sam LaPorta could be Goff’s best tight end he’s ever played with…
Detroit Lions players had the day off on Sunday, but team was still putting in work tinkering with their roster. Per Aaron Wilson, the Lions hosted guard Oday Aboushi for a workout on Sunday. If that name sounds familiar, it should. Aboushi played for two season with the Lions from 2019 to 2020. Over that…
The Detroit Lions have banked two full weeks of training camp practices and we at Pride of Detroit have been in attendance for all of them. Over the last 11 practices, we have seen players step up when opportunities present themselves, as well as players who have struggled to find their footing.
Back in May, our own John Whiticar asked if there were any dark-horse candidates to make the Detroit Lions’ 2023 roster. It’s a fun topic that time of year because you’re basically just guessing based on little-to-no results. You’re attaching yourself to a rookie prospect or hoping a player takes a significant jump in his…
After a Friday walkthrough, the Detroit Lions were back on the practice field and in front of fans at Allen Park for Day 11 of training camp. After a long period of individual and one-on-one drills, the Lions ran a few 11-on-11 matchups before closing the day with an end-of-game four-minute scenario, both asking their…

We’re nearly two weeks into NFL training camp and preseason action is right around the corner for the Detroit Lions. It’s good to finally have football back, even if we’re limited to hearing how players are performing through the lens of the local beat writers. As fans, we love to get our fix of Lions…

The Detroit Lions made some significant improvements to their running back room heading into the 2023 season. They signed David Montgomery to a three-year, $18 million contract, and in the first round of the 2023 NFL Draft, they took running back Jahmyr Gibbs, surprising people around the league with the move. Now, after signing a…
Plenty of players make mistakes as they find their footing in training camp, but when you’re Jameson Williams, those slip ups are under a microscope. That’s basically the point Detroit Lions general manager Brad Holmes tried to get across when speaking to the hosts on 97.1 The Ticket on Thursday. Williams has been making headlines…
Each training camp, the Detroit Lions typically hold an inter-squad scrimmage near the end of the second week of training camp. Typically the Lions hold this practice at Ford Field as part of their “Family Day” events, but with the stadium booked for WWE Summerslam, the Lions opted to hold keep this practice in Allen…
The first big roar from the crowd during Monday’s training camp practice came from an unlikely source. During one-on-one red zone drills, Detroit Lions undrafted rookie wide receiver Dylan Drummond had starting safety Tracy Walker so twisted up that it was an easy score for him. Minutes later, the two lined up again and Drummond…
