Very few receivers have been as productive as Amon-Ra St. Brown over the past three seasons. With 412 targets, 315 catches, 3,588 yards and 21 touchdowns, St. Brown has become the picture of high-end consistency. He is also one of the biggest reasons the Lions have gone from a moribund franchise to near-Super Bowl participants.

Those who doubted Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell at any point before the 2023 season began are surely believers in the third-year head coach now. Campbell delivered arguably the best season in franchise history, guiding the Lions to a 12-5 record, their fourth division championship since the merger (1970) and their second-ever appearance in

As successful as the Detroit Lions were this past season, it’s clear that they still have some holes on their roster. Take their secondary for example. The Lions finished just 27th in pass defense in 2023, blatantly indicating the need for help in their defensive backfield. Fortunately, Detroit is entering the offseason with tons of

October 22nd, 2019 was a maddening day for Detroit Lions fans. That was the day that the Bob Quinn inexplicably traded away safety Quandre Diggs for a 2020 fifth round pick. The Lions would go on to use that pick to draft running back Jason Huntley by the way.  Diggs would go on to be

The Miami Dolphins defense could be losing another key contributor this offseason. On Monday, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport confirmed the Dolphins will not place the franchise tag on star defensive tackle Christian Wilkins, making him an unrestricted free agent.

One of the best things about hiring new coaches is that they can often wind up bringing over players with them to their new team.

The Detroit Lions logged a grand total of 41 sacks this past season, putting them in the bottom third of the NFL in terms of getting to the quarterback. For a team trying to contend for a Super Bowl, that’s not great. Luckily, the Lions have plenty of cap room to play with this offseason,

Free agency is set to begin next week and everyone is wonder what the Detroit Lions are going to do when they have a chance to bring in some new players. What we already know is that the Lions are expected to be aggressive in their pursuit of a high end corner per rumblings heard

Zylstra, 26, signed with the Vikings as an undrafted free agent out of Minnesota State-Mankato following the 2021 NFL Draft. He was waived coming out of the preseason and signed to the Lions’ practice squad, however.  He bounced on and off Detroit’s practice squad throughout the season before signing a futures deal for 2022. He

This happens all the time. Fans of a team will look at one of their players that could be traded and overvalue you them to the point of delusion. A perfect example is that I had Lions fans telling me that Julian Okwara shouldn’t be traded unless the Lions get a premier player back for

Welcome to cornerback day. One of the big stories coming out of Indianapolis this past week was that the Detroit Lions are going to be aggressive in free agency when it comes to finding a cornerback. With that in mind, we went through the available prospects and here’s our top 5 corners for the Lions

The market for star cornerback L’Jarius Sneed is heating up. The Kansas City Chiefs are expected to franchise tag (a one-year, $19.8M deal) the two-time Super Bowl champion and could trade him if they don’t reach a long-term contract.  Per ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, the Detroit Lions and Miami Dolphins might be interested in adding the
