Late in the Detroit Lions victory over the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 8, long snapper Scott Daly was forced from the game with a knee injury following a field goal attempt. Tuesday afternoon, coach Dan Campbell updated his status while speaking to the media and noted that the injury would require surgery meaning he…

The Detroit Lions announced on Tuesday afternoon they have traded for Browns receiver Donovan Peoples-Jones. Per general manager Brad Holmes, the move cost the Lions their 2025 sixth-round pick. It’s a bit of a surprise considering receiver wasn’t a huge need and Peoples-Jones has only caught eight passes this year for 97 yards. That said,…

The Detroit Lions handled the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 9, winning 26-14 in a game that was clearly not as close as the score suggests. This latest win takes the Lions record to 6-2 on the season and they are firmly second place in the NFC, only trailing the 7-1 Eagles.

Heading into the 2023 NFL trade deadline, the Detroit Lions are in an exciting position. While they are in the playoff race and the NFC North division favorite, they could trade away some players for future NFL Draft picks to help them in another trade or build for the 2024 season. Another option for them…

“Life’s good, brother.” It’s been a very long time since we’ve been able to say that, but those were the exact words of Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell after the team’s 26-14 win over the Las Vegas Raiders on Monday night. The Lions are now 6-2 on the season, currently hold the NFC’s second overall…

The Las Vegas Raiders were just what the doctor ordered for an ailing Detroit Lions team. After an embarrassing loss to the Baltimore Ravens last week, the Lions were in desperate need of a turnaround performance with their bye week upcoming. Limping into the bye with back-to-back tough losses would have stung for the promising…

Early in the first half, Detroit Lions safety Kerby Joseph picked off Raiders quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo on a perfectly read play. It was a huge play in the game, as the Lions had just turned the ball over themselves, via a Josh Reynold fumble. Joseph’s pick undoubtedly saved the team at least three points, potentially…

The Detroit Lions are hosting the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 8 on “Monday Night Football”, and as always, the folks over at DraftKings Sportsbook have provided us with the odds for the game. I’ve been pushing Josh Reynolds and the over on receiving yards for a month now and it’s hit each of the…

The Detroit Lions (5-2) are taking on the Las Vegas Raiders (3-4) in Week 8 on “Monday Night Football” at Ford Field. Because this week’s game is on Monday, the Lions’ typical schedule has been altered a bit. For example, Detroit typically makes any necessary roster moves—signings, practice squad elevations, etc.—on the Saturday before a…

In Week 8, the Detroit Lions (5-2) will host a game on “Monday Night Football” for the first time since Week 1 of the 2018 season. This week’s opponent is the Las Vegas Raiders (3-4), and while the folks over at DraftKings Sportsbook have projected the Lions to be big favorites, coach Dan Campbell is…

Will this week’s edition of “Sunday Night Football” be the cure that these struggling teams need? The Los Angeles Chargers and Chicago Bears enter Week 8 with two wins apiece, both teams a disappointment, but for different reasons. The Chargers were hoping to reach the playoffs again in 2023 after a Wild Card loss the…

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins suffered a non-contact injury in the fourth quarter against the Green Bay Packers. Cousins limped to the sideline without putting any pressure on his leg and was eventually carted off the field and into the locker room. Immediately, the Vikings ruled him out for the rest of the game with…

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown has been added to the team’s injury report. He is now questionable to play Monday night with an illness. St. Brown will have a full 24 hours to get healthy and ready for the game, but if he can’t go, it’d be a major blow to Detroit’s explosive…

The NFC playoff race got a little tighter this week after the Detroit Lions dropped their Week 7 contest against the Baltimore Ravens. They forfeited their share of first place in the conference, and with the Vikings and Bears scoring wins, Detroit’s lead in the NFC North is not quite as cozy this week.

Happy NFL Sunday to you! It’s another one of those beautiful fall Sundays where Detroit Lions fans can just sit back and enjoy a full slate of football without stressing about the home team. The Lions will have their time in the sun on Monday night against the Las Vegas Raiders, but today, it’s all…

The NFL trade deadline is at 4 p.m. ET on Tuesday, and many believe the Detroit Lions could be in the market to add players. At 5-2, the Lions have a leg up on the division and could be fighting for a top seed in the conference if they continue playing this way.

At long last, we’re nearly here: to the real rankings. It shouldn’t take this long, but it’s fun to watch when the College Football Playoffs finally put out their real rankings. Not the fugazi, still clinging Associated Press or the Coaches’ Poll. Not that the committee seems to have a recognizable habit to what they…

Detroit Lions defensive back C.J. Gardner-Johnson surprised some teammates on Friday by showing up on the sidelines. The boisterous defender suffered a torn pectoral in Week 2 that required surgery and is out for the foreseeable future, but on the sidelines, he was able to bring some energy to the Lions practice.

The Detroit Lions and Las Vegas Raiders head into Monday night looking to put last week’s embarrassments behind them. For the Lions, it was a 38-6 loss at the hands of the Baltimore Ravens. While losing to a good Ravens team on the road is nothing to be ashamed of, losing in the fashion that…

The Detroit Lions (5-2) returned to the practice field on Friday, slightly more healthier than the day before as they prepare for the Las Vegas Raiders (3-4). While that’s mostly good news, there is now some serious concern about more shakeups on the offensive line. Let’s get into it with our Friday injury report.
