SEATTLE — They were overwhelmed for all but a couple minutes in the first half and, for a while, it looked like the Detroit Lions weren’t ready to play or compete. Maybe they weren’t. This was surprising, truthfully. You have to go back to October to find a performance this sad. True, the Lions lost by 28 at Denver three weeks ago but that score

The Lions placed wide receiver Kalif Raymond on the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday, the third receiver they’ve lost to the virus this week. Josh Reynolds tested positive for COVID on Monday, but is eligible to come off the reserve/COVID

Poor Jared Goff. The Detroit Lions quarterback never seems to catch a break, and yet he never complains. Goff’s stoic nature tells me two things about him. He could never be a sportswriter, because grumbling about the most trivial things — seriously, no upgrade on my last flight even though I have Double Platinum Horcrux

The Detroit Lions are still waiting word on whether Jared Goff will return from his knee injury for Sunday’s game against the Seattle Seahawks, but they should have one of Goff’s backfield mates in the lineup.

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff did not practice Wednesday because of a lingering knee injury he suffered against the Arizona Cardinals, leaving his status in doubt for Sunday’s road game against the Seattle Seahawks. “Yeah, it’s still there,” Goff said after sitting out practice. “We’re still dealing with it.

Jared Goff isn’t the only key offensive player the Detroit Lions will have back in the mix for Sunday’s game against the Seattle Seahawks. Lions coach Dan Campbell said Wednesday running back D’Andre Swift is in line to return after a four-week absence due to a sprained shoulder. Swift has not played since the first

I wrote about Jared Goff’s future being potentially something more than a bridge quarterback last week, and Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell acknowledged that possibility in his weekly interview with WXYT-FM (97.1) on Tuesday. “I don’t see why not,” Campbell said. “He’s playing pretty good ball now. I mean, he’s coming off of his best performance

The Detroit Lions will play a regular season game in Seattle this Sunday for the first time since officials missed a batted ball penalty in a 2015 loss to the Seahawks — and with the same referee officiating the game. Tony Corrente has been assigned to Sunday’s Lions-Seahawks game. Corrente refereed the Lions’ 13-10 loss to
