We are nearly there. The thick of the NFL offseason is about to be upon us, with the next major event not until late July, when players report for mandatory training camp. For the Detroit Lions, that means long hours spent at their facility in Allen Park, Michigan. And while there isn’t necessarily anything wrong…
Former Tennessee quarterback Hendon Hooker is, without question, the Detroit Lions’ most interesting draft pick. Selected in the third round, Hooker’s range of possibilities with the Lions is the largest of any selection made this past April. While he’ll have a slow start to his NFL career—battling through ACL tear recovery and a steep learning…
Charles Harris has been here before, the forgotten man on the Detroit Lions defense, clawing his way out from the wreckage of a lost season, and it brought out the best in him. Harris was a reclamation project when he signed with the Lions in 2021, a former first-round pick whose career seemed to be
Allen Park — They don’t know what they don’t know. But, that’s really not the point here. C.J. Gardner-Johnson has one idea. Taylor Decker has another. And when you put those ideas together, you do get a better sense of where they think this Lions team might be headed this fall. A better appreciation, too,
Detroit — Who knew Detroit’s favorite football team were “Swifties”? The Lions joined the chorus of thousands of fans descending on the Motor City this weekend from across the state, country and world, anticipating Taylor Swift’s two soldout shows at Ford Field as part of her Eras tour. Players took to the team’s Instagram page
Allen Park — 3…2…1…wait! Mandatory minicamp will officially come to a close for the Detroit Lions on Monday, meaning football activity at large is about to come to a vicious halt. And after all the excitement that was building in Allen Park over the last few weeks, all the questions about Week 1 at Kansas
We’ve seen this too many times. Nick Fairley. Eric Ebron. Charles Rogers. These Detroit Lions were high first-round draft picks who carried the hopes of the team and either fell far short of fulfilling their potential or were outright busts. These were Lions whose stories might have turned out differently — should have turned out
Taylor Decker was angry. Maybe you remember. His Detroit Lions had just lost to the Buffalo Bills on Thanksgiving. A last-second field goal did them in, another gut-punch in a string of them the first half of last season. Thirty minutes after the game, Decker, all 6 feet, 7 inches of him, stood near his
Allen Park — It’s been 17 months since Levi Onwuzurike last played in a football game — and he still lacks a clear timetable to return to action following back surgery last October — yet the Detroit Lions third-year defensive tackle continues to show up to work every day with a smile on his face.
Allen Park — Asked which players have made the most noticeable improvements during these early stages of the offseason program, one of the first names mentioned by Detroit Lions coach Campbell was Ifeatu Melifonwu. With Tracy Walker still working his way back from last year’s Achilles injury, Melifonwu, the third-year defensive back out of Syracuse,
It’s not a coincidence that the Kansas City Chiefs are connected to a lot of big-name players who become potentially available. Same with the New England Patriots back in the day, or the Los Angeles Rams in the not-so-distant past. The Detroit Lions are now regularly entering those conversations. After nabbing former New Orleans Saints
Marvin Jones Jr. is back home in Detroit after a two-year stint in Jacksonville, but this isn’t the same team he left behind. Far from it. “You step outside, everybody’s talking about (the Lions). There’s definitely a big buzz — a buzz that I haven’t really seen here,” he told Tim Twentyman on the latest…
