As previously discussed on GH, Hendon Hooker suffered a concussion during the Lions preseason contest against the New York Giants. Head coach Dan Campbell said he wasn’t sure how long Hooker would be in the concession protocol: “Yeah, he got a concussion, so he’s obviously in the protocol and he’ll be evaluated. I don’t know
The Detroit Lions are looking to add another quarterback this week after Nate Sudfeld had such a bad Thursday and Hendon Hooker could miss this week’s game due to being in concussion protocol. “Brad (Holmes) and I talked about that this morning, that could come down the wire, you know, today or tomorrow.” Campbell said.
When the Detroit Lions selected Hendon Hooker in the 3rd round of the 2023 NFL Draft, there was some uncertainty on if he’d play at any point of his rookie season. Most of this uncertainty came from the Lions having Jared Goff but also, Hooker, was coming back from a torn ACL. With that, he
The Detroit Lions preseason opener against the New York Giants wasn’t a big huge night full of explosive plays or anything like that. It was, like most preseason games, pretty ugly. Still there were some guys that totally showed out on Thursday. Particularly some guys that you may not have even had on your radar
Over the last three years under Dan Campbell and Brad Holmes, I always pay attention to the players they take later in the NFL Draft. In addition to that, it’s important to watch the players they sign as undrafted free agents. Much of that is due to their ability to identify talent and coach them
The Detroit Lions slogged to a 14-3 preseason loss on Thursday night in soggy New York to the Giants. Playing almost no players who will see the field for meaningful reps in 2024, Detroit dropped the first exhibition game. How did the rest of the Lions division, the NFC North, fare in its preseason week
Unfortunately, if you aren’t a Detroit Lions or New York Giants fan, the things you heard about the joint practices between the two teams probably had something to do with the near-constant skirmishes between the two clubs. In fact, training camp fights typically swallow up a good portion of the headlines around this time of…
The Detroit Lions offense did not have their best day against the New York Giants, but that’s all part of the process. The purpose of preseason games isn’t to win, but to evaluate. And bad performances are just as necessary to identify as the good ones when building a roster.
The Lions are getting closer to finally having one of their 2024 draft picks in the practice lineup. Sixth-round offensive lineman Christian Mahogany is progressing toward being activated from the non-football illness list. Mahogany has been out all of training camp with an undisclosed illness. He has been away from the team since the June
After two players suffered season-ending injuries in the preseason opener in New York, the Detroit Lions added two new players to the training camp roster ahead of Sunday’s practice session. The Lions signed veteran offensive lineman Jamarco Jones and linebacker Abraham Beauplan to the 90-man roster. They will take the place of injured offensive tackle
During the Detroit Lions 14 – 3 loss to the New York Giants last Thursday, they saw potential backup quarterback Hendon Hooker go down with injury. The injury he sustained was a concussion and it’s unclear of exactly when that injury occurred. Meanwhile, it seems unlikely that we’ll see Hooker play in the Lions second
The Detroit Lions were back on the practice field on Sunday, following their preseason game against the New York Giants. After a tough week of joint practices that saw several players banged up, and a physical game resulted in even more injuries, the Lions scaled things back a bit, appearing to keep a few extra…
Beauplan went undrafted out of Marshall in the 2023 NFL Draft and signed with the Minnesota Vikings. Beauplan had two really strong preseason perfromances before getting injured and being waived with an injury settlement in early September. The Vikings still brought him back in January to join their practice squad and then signed him to
Former Tennessee Vols quarterback Hendon Hooker had a solid NFL preseason debut for the Detroit Lions last week, but it came with a dose of bad news. Hooker, who is entering his second season with Detroit, completed five-of-nine passes for 36 yards against the New York Giants. He also picked up 34 rushing yards on
Lions undrafted rookie defensive end Nate Lynn had been steadily climbing the depth chart all summer. A very strong preseason debut against the New York Gianylts elevated Lynn into legitimate contention to make the 53-man roster. Unfortunately for Lynn, his rookie campaign is over. The EDGE from William & Mary suffered a shoulder injury in

If there’s one thing we’ve learned at Detroit Lions training camp this summer it’s that the Lions have a backup quarterback problem. That was further cemented when we got to see guys in action this past Thursday night in the Lions first preseason game. Nate Sudfeld had been showing some improvement during camp, but ON
Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell offered several injury updates during his Sunday afternoon press conference, following a physical preseason game against the New York Giants. The worst news came for edge rusher Nate Lynn and offensive tackle Connor Galvin. Per Campbell, both players suffered injuries that he expects to end their 2024 season. Galvin suffered…
The team is also placing DL Nate Lynn on injured reserve and signing LB Abraham Beauplan and OT Jamarco Jones. Galvin, 24, signed with Detroit in 2023 as an undrafted free agent out of Baylor. The Lions waived him before the season in 2023 before signing him to the practice squad shortly after. Detroit signed
