The Detroit Lions season is right around the corner. Before we get into it, I thought i might be fun to take one last look at another insane trade proposal put out by an NFL writer. We found a crazy one for sure. Marisa Myers of TWSN is saying that she believes the Lions will
The Detroit Lions are rolling into Week 1 with just four wide receivers on the active 53-man roster. Of the foursome, only Jameson Williams stands above 6-foot-1 and only Amon-Ra St. Brown tops 190 on the weight scale. The Lions are very small at wideout, no doubt about it. To that end, the Lions added
When the Detroit Lions drafted Jameson Williams in 2022, they knew it was going to be a slow start for the former Alabama wide receiver. With a torn ACL suffered just a few months before the draft, the Lions selected him knowing most of his rookie season would be spent on the sidelines.
This question may be a bit early, but at this point, I don’t really care. The sooner it is next Sunday, the better. Don’t get me wrong, I am going to do my best to enjoy this long Labor Day weekend. If you are around the Detroit area, the Jazz festival is this weekend, and…
The Detroit Lions have established their 53-man roster (okay, it sits at 52 right now), and their 16-man practice squad (okay, it’s only at 15 as of Friday morning). With only a couple more moves to shake out before we approach Week 1, we thought it was time to fully break down the roster moves…
The Detroit Lions had one open spot on the practice squad after releasing veteran safety CJ Moore earlier on Thursday. They fill the spot with another safety. The Lions announced they have signed Erick Hallett to the final spot on the practice squad. Hallett, 24, was a sixth-round pick by the Jacksonville Jaguars in the
The Detroit Lions announced they signed S Erick Hallett to their practice squad on Thursday. Detroit’s practice squad now includes: WR Donovan Peoples-Jones LB Mitchell Agude C Kingsley Eguakun QB Jake Fromm RB Jermar Jefferson T Jamarco Jones WR Tom Kennedy TE James Mitchell DL Pat O’Connor WR Tim Patrick DL Kyle Peko WR Allen
The Detroit Lions cleared a spot on the practice squad early Thursday morning when they released veteran safety C.J. Moore. They already have a replacement by signing Erik Hallett. The 24-year-old Hallett was a sixth-round pick by the Jaguars in the 2023 NFL Draft. He spent last season on the team’s practice squad. He was
For the last 15 seasons, at least one undrafted rookie free agent (UDFA) has made the Detroit Lions’ initial 53-man roster, which is quite an impressive streak. Even more remarkable is that the Lions’ roster is considered deep enough to make a run at the Super Bowl, yet, there were still three UDFAs that made…
Could Detroit Lions kicker Jake Bates have had a better training camp? Yes, obviously. The team’s new kicker missed more than a handful of short kicks and had a couple of tough practices along the way. But the young kicker still managed to win the Lions’ kicker job unopposed.
The Detroit Lions had to do a lot of maneuvering to get around the NFL’s roster rules. That included only officially signing 15 players to their practice squad Friday and making the Donovan Peoples-Jones signing official Thursday. It also included keeping John Cominsky on the 53-man roster until Thursday so they could put him on
It’s the totally unexpected things that can sometimes be the coolest things. Stuff like Jake Fromm locking down a job with the Lions despite every conceivable thing being against the possibility of it happening. Hendon Hooker takes a bad hit against the Giants and the Lions say they’re looking to add a quarterback right before
Former Tennessee Vols quarterback Hendon Hooker made the Detroit Lions’ initial 53-man roster this week. Hooker, a third round selection by the Lions in the 2023 NFL Draft, missed all of his rookie season while recovering from the torn ACL he suffered at Tennessee in 2022. The former Vol returned to the field this summer
As has been the expectation for weeks, the Detroit Lions have placed defensive lineman John Cominsky on the injured reserve list. Cominsky tore a tendon in his knee during the early portion of training camp and is expected to miss most of the season. The Lions held off on placing Cominsky on I.R. until after
There’s a story that was retold by Nate Burleson six years ago that accurately depicted the reputation and culture of the Detroit Lions franchise. As Burleson tells it, when he came into the team’s locker room for the first time in 2010 as an incoming free agent, an unnamed cornerback pulled him aside and told…
While none of the players the Detroit Lions waived this week ahead of Tuesday’s roster deadline were claimed by another team, one of the undrafted rookies cut by the team has found a new home. Offensive lineman Bryan Hudson has agreed to sign with the New England Patriots on that team’s practice squad. Per Patriots

The Detroit Lions announced a few expected roster moves on Thursday morning, along with one unexpected one. As expected, John Cominsky has been placed on injured reserve after suffering a torn MCL a month ago in training camp practice. Because he spent a day on the Lions’ 53-man roster, he is eligible to return to…
Detroit Lions GM Brad Holmes left no doubt about what he thinks of the squad he and his front office team and coaching staff have assembled. Holmes laid it out there in his Thursday morning press conference. Asked about his expectations for the coming season, Holmes quickly answered, “My expectations? Win the Super Bowl.” Not
One of the biggest themes of the offseason for the Detroit Lions was that they had a receiver problem. That problem has been theoretically solved at this point, but it sounds like it could have been solved a bit earlier. Lions GM Brad Holmes met with the media bright and early Thursday morning and said
