The Detroit Lions are getting one starter back in their secondary for Sunday’s showdown with the Green Bay Packers, but could be without another because of injury.

Heading into the 2022 regular season finale against the Green Bay Packers, here is the Week 18 injury report for the Detroit Lions. Even if they can’t make the playoffs with a win, there’s plenty for the Detroit Lions to gain with a win over the Green Bay Packers in Week 18. On the stage

Some Detroit Lions players have spoken about their distaste for Aaron Rodgers and the Packers, but it cannot become a distraction on the field Sunday night.

Two months after the NFL Players Association called for a ban on the type of turf used at Ford Field, the Detroit Lions are installing a new surface for 2023.

Allen Park — With no information other than the final scores, you could have safely assumed the Green Bay Packers’ four-game winning streak coincided with quarterback Aaron Rodgers getting hot. You’d be wrong. Rodgers’ stat line during the stretch has been pedestrian, certainly contrasted against the lofty standards he’s established throughout his Hall of Fame
