Pride of Detroit

Per multiple reports, the NFL has fined both the New York Giants and Detroit Lions $200,000 each for the amount of fights and scuffles that broke out during their pair of joint practices this week. The first practice on Monday was filled with fights from the beginning to the end, with Lions reporter Kyle Meinke…

The Detroit Lions have Wednesday off as they prepare for their preseason opener against the New York Giants. So I thought this was a good opportunity to open up our mailbag—but with a twist. Yes, myself and Erik Schlitt did a Midweek Mailbag podcast on Tuesday night, but I thought for those that don’t love…

If you read the New York Giants media’s take on Day 1 of joint practices with the Detroit Lions, most believed New York—at the very least—hung with the gritty Lions. But the tone out of New Jersey was a little different for Tuesday’s practice. While things certainly remained high-intensity, it certainly sounds like the Lions…

Hearts are breaking for Emmanuel Moseley as the Lions announced Tuesday he suffered an injury that’ll keep him off the field indefinitely. The cornerback suffered a torn pectoral at practice that will keep him sidelined for an undetermined amount of time. While all injuries straight up stink, what makes this news particularly brutal is this…

The Detroit Lions are wrapping up joint practices in New Jersey on Tuesday in preparation for their preseason Game 1 against the New York Giants on Thursday. In previous training camps, the Lions have shown a pattern of resting key players during preseason games following joint practices with their opponent, and in 2024, they appear…

Tuesday hasn’t gotten off to a great start for the Detroit Lions. It kicked off with news that cornerback Emmanuel Moseley is out indefinitely after suffering a torn pectoral. The news got a little better later when coach Dan Campbell noted that the injuries to Terrion Arnold—who will practice Tuesday—and Kevin Zeitler are not considered…

According to a report from ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Detroit Lions cornerback Emmanuel Moseley suffered a torn pectoral at practice this week, and will be out indefinitely. It’s another moment of terrible luck for Moseley, who has now suffered three serious injuries in three consecutive seasons. He played in just five games in 2022 before tearing…

As training camp continues and evolves into the preseason, we’re getting a better understanding of where the Detroit Lions roster stands. That said, with so much overhaul on the defensive side of the ball—and a ton of players repping at several positions—it’s hard to make sense of everything.

For the past two weeks, we’ve consumed every bit of Detroit media about Lions training camp. But thanks to joint practices with the New York Giants this week, we’re able to get a bit of an outsider perspective on this year’s team. It’s a fresh set of eyes, and while Giants media was predominantly focused…

Prior to Monday’s joint practice with the New York Giants, Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell offered a couple of quick injury updates. To start, Campbell noted that tight end Sam LaPorta was going to sit out practice with an undisclosed injury, and defensive back Brian Branch would be limited to individual drills and seven-on-seven work.…

In the days leading up to their first preseason game of 2024, the Detroit Lions will be joining the New York Giants at their practice facility in East Rutherford, New Jersey for joint practices. Both teams have had significant additions on their respective rosters this offseason, and there will be some very interesting matchups to…

For years when I was a kid (and if we are being honest, as a young adult) the release of Madden was almost a holiday. It signaled that football season was getting close, and playing the game was a great way to pass the time until the real thing got started. Now, in the year…

It’s not a secret that the Detroit Lions are searching for their Josh Reynolds replacement on offense. The team made it clear that he was a key part of their offense last year, and general manager Brad Holmes even noted that their Plan A was to bring him back for another season. Unfortunately, it didn’t…

The Detroit Lions have been relatively healthy through two weeks of training camp. In nearly every day of camp thus far, they’ve had at least 85 of 90 players practicing. That isn’t to say they haven’t suffered some injury. They unfortunately lost veteran kicker Michael Badgley for the season, defensive tackle DJ Reader remains on…

Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell didn’t want to jinx it, but he couldn’t help it when asked about Jermar Jefferson. “I almost don’t want to answer it because I feel like it’s the same thing, I say something about a guy and I feel like it’s the kiss of death because the next practice is…,”…

The second week of Detroit Lions training camp will come to a close on Friday, with the team’s fifth practice in a row. One more practice left before the team departs to New Jersey for a set of joint practice and a preseason matchup with the New York Giants.

Now more than a week into training camp, the Detroit Lions have one practice remaining in Allen Park before packing up and heading to New Jersey for joint practices with the New York Giants. As expected, there have been some really competitive battles taking place on various parts of the roster. However, after working against…

Last year when the Detroit Lions signed Teddy Bridgewater, it was a nice boost to the quarterback room, giving Detroit some much-needed insurance at the quarterback position. But from the minute that signing was made, coach Dan Campbell noted that Bridgewater’s impact was going to go well beyond his own position.

Besides all the winning, one of the most notable changes in Detroit Lions culture is how much the players support each other, at least outwardly. I’m not saying players in the past haven’t been there for each other, but it seems to be on a whole new level these days, especially publicly. I mean:

At Thursday’s Detroit Lions training camp practice, Lions players continue to battle through bumps and bruises, but some are making progress to return to the field. One player who was able to return was starting defensive back Brian Branch, who practiced in full for the first time this offseason.
