It’s no secret that the Detroit Lions defense has struggled in recent weeks.

Per the official release, the Lions hosted free-agent wide receiver Tom Kennedy for a visit. Yeah, that Tom Kennedy, the one who played for the Lions from 2019-2022
The mentor protégé relationship is a big thing in the NFL. Coaching tree’s are vast and seem to be everlasting. The Bill Parcels coaching tree is gigantic.

The Detroit Lions are a good team and they have one of the NFL’s best offensive coordinators in Ben Johnson. Which means he won’t be around much longer because he will eventually take a head coaching job in the NFL. That’s how it goes, these days. The league is all about scoring points and developing
The Detroit Lions defensive line just hasn’t been getting the sack numbers that Lions fans were hoping for. The guy that’s been taking all the blame for this has been former 2nd overall pick Aidan Hutchinson. After a really nice rookie year and good start to this season, Hutchinson has gone quiet. This has of
It felt a little like the sky was falling on Thanksgiving after the Detroit Lions lost to the Green Bay Packers. It wasn’t just that Detroit lost to their biggest rival on national television, but that the team has now produced uninspiring performances in back-to-back weeks.

After getting beat up on Thanksgiving Day by the Green Bay Packers, the Detroit Lions are taking another hit on Tuesday morning, this time from the national power rankers.

The clock is ticking until the 2024 NFL Draft — quite literally at Campus Martius, where a giant clock displaying a countdown to the big event ticks away second by second. In about 150 days, Detroit will host one of the biggest sporting events from April 25-27. The key, said Mayor Mike Duggan at a…
The Pro Football Hall of Fame announced the 25 semifinalists for the inauguration class of 2024. Two former Lions players were among those moving on in the process. They’re probably not the Lions most fans would expect, however. Dwight Freeney and Anquan Boldin are the two players who spent time with Detroit in their playing
