A major mark in hockey’s record book just fell. Could we something similar happen in football in the near future? On Sunday afternoon, Alexander Ovechkin of the Washington Capitals broke the longstanding NHL goal record, reaching 895 career goals to topple Wayne Gretzky. One of the most prestigious titles in hockey history now has a…

One story that came out of the number shakeup the Detroit Lions released earlier this week was a touching gesture by Lions’ cornerback Terrion Arnold. Having played his college football at the University of Alabama, Arnold remains close with plenty of former Crimson Tide teammates, including Minnesota Vikings’ cornerback Khyree Jackson, who was tragically lost…
Last week during the NFL owners meeting, teams discussed whether they should change current playoff seedings to no longer give division winners an automatic home game—a rule proposed by the Detroit Lions. Ultimately, the league owners opted to table the discussion for the next meetings in May, but Lions team president Rod Wood revealed an…
The NFL offseason has slowed to a crawl. The coaching carousel is far in the rear-view mirror, free agency has dried up, and with the Senior Bowl and NFL Combine behind us, the only real NFL Draft things to talk about is relatively boring pro days and the endless wave of mock drafts.
The Dallas Cowboys haven’t made the NFC Championship since 1995. That doesn’t really have anything to do with our 2025 Pride of Detroit Community Mock Draft, but it remains one of my favorite NFL facts. If the Cowboys’ late conference championship appearance was a person, it would likely have some back issues by now.
This week, Detroit Lions general manager Brad Holmes made it clear that his cap management strategy right now is primarily motivated by discipline. While it may be tempting to spend all of Detroit’s current cap space on a big-name player or two that could push the Lions over the top in 2025, Holmes knows that…
It’s the San Francisco 49ers’ pick in our 2025 Pride of Detroit Community Mock Draft. It’s been a wild offseason for the 49ers. While most of their core pieces remain intact, there was significant attrition across the rest of the team’s roster. While I don’t necessarily think the 49ers are in complete rebuild, they definitely…
While the Green Bay Packers are probably still the biggest Detroit Lions rival, the Chicago Bears are already making a pretty good case for 2025. With former Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson taking the Bears head coach job—and ruffling some feathers since he’s been there—I know many Lions fans are wishing terrible things on the…
Jordan Burch is a defensive end prospect that has ideal height, weight, and length for the Lions defensive system and could be an outstanding Day 2 fit for the team. Below are my observations of the former five-star recruits game, including positive traits, deficient traits, and other observations from his tape.
The Detroit Lions announced on Thursday that eight different players are changing their jersey numbers with the team, while also announcing the numbers for the incoming players from free agency. Most notably, Jameson Williams is switching from No. 9 to the No. 1 jersey, while running back Jahmyr Gibbs has gone from No. 26 to…
It’s time for the Carolina Panthers to make their pick in our 2025 Pride of Detroit Community Mock Draft. Acting as the Panthers general manager this year is commenter BigFan_19. The Panthers are a fascinating team to draft for this year. While last year’s 5-12 season was a massive disappointment for Carolina, they did go…
On Thursday afternoon, the NFL announced offseason workout dates for all 32 teams. That includes OTAs (Organized Team Activities) and mandatory minicamp. For the Detroit Lions, it all begins later this month on April 22. By rule, teams with a returning head coach cannot begin their offseason program until the third Monday of April (April…
The 2025 Pride of Detroit Community Mock Draft rolls on as we head toward the back half of the top-10. As a reminder, this mock draft is created by you, the viewer. We’ve gathered 31 of our most valued commenters and community members to act as NFL general managers, with our own Erik Schlitt acting…
Earlier this week, Detroit Lions general manager Brad Holmes said they likely aren’t done adding to their offensive line, with a veteran signing or NFL Draft addition possible over the next month. In addition to that, it sounds like the Lions may play around with the players they already have on the roster.
Over the past weekend, we started our 2025 Pride of Detroit Community Mock Draft. If you haven’t been following, our Community Mock Draft allows the most active and loyal members of our community to participate as NFL general managers. All 32 teams are represented by a commenter from this site—other than the Detroit Lions, who…
There have already been some surprises in the Pride of Detroit Community Mock Draft—our annual mock draft that allows our commenters to take over and act as NFL general managers. The real NFL Draft always seems to come with some early surprises, as well, and the source of many of those twists has often been…
One of the perks of the NFL annual owners meetings is that fresh off of NFL free agency, coaches can offer their thought processes on adding new players. While the Detroit Lions had a pretty modest class this year, coach Dan Campbell still offered valuable insight into the new players this year.
A few years back, Detroit Lions team president and CEO Rod Wood told reporters the team was in the very early stages of exploring options to find a new home for their training facility, currently located in Allen Park. But after spending the past two years renovating their current home, Wood said on Tuesday that…
The Jacksonville Jaguars are on the clock in our 2025 Pride of Detroit Community Mock Draft. It’s been a rough go for the Jaguars ever since it looked like they were on the precipice of becoming a new AFC powerhouse. Back in 2017, Doug Marrone led the Jaguars to an improbable run to the AFC…
According to a report from The Draft Network’s Ryan Fowler, the Detroit Lions are expected to host Texas A&M edge rusher Shemar Stewart on a “top” 30 visit in Allen Park on Wednesday. Stewart made waves at this year’s NFL Combine after his collective athletic testing landed him a perfect 10.0 RAS (Relative Atheltic Score).
