Two teams from the NFC East are looking to get in the win column in the first Thursday Night Football of the 2021 season. The Washington Football Team enter tonight’s game with a change at quarterback. Ryan Fitzpatrick suffered a hip injury in Week 1 against the Chargers, so Taylor Heinicke will step into the
Allen Park — The Detroit Lions filled one of two openings on the team’s active roster Thursday morning, signing offensive tackle Will Holden off the practice squad. Initially added to that unit last week following Taylor Decker’s finger injury, Holden was temporarily elevated from the practice squad for Sunday’s season opener against San Francisco. He did
Allen Park — Before Thursday’s practice, Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell said the team was in no rush to fill their remaining roster opening. By the afternoon, the situation changed when the team claimed cornerback Corey Ballentine off waivers from the New York Jets. A sixth-round pick out of Division II Washburn in 2019, the 6-foot, 190-pound
Ex-Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams likens his new stint with the Detroit Lions to finding rebound love on an appreciate team. Divisional rivalries are never pretty, so when a player leaves his team for a former foe, it’s often spite in light of unrequited love. Former Green Bay Packers running back took the
Week 2 of the NFL is always fun, because there’s an intense overreaction to Week 1. We all clung to our offseason preconceived notions about every single team in the NFL, and as soon as the games kicked off last Sunday, that was all thrown out the window. The Packers are terrible! Josh Allen sucks
Allen Park — No one is surprised the rebuilding Detroit Lions lost their season opener, but expectations are considerably higher for the Green Bay Packers in 2021, fresh off a 13-3 season and a narrow defeat in the NFC Championship Game. And while the New Orleans Saints are far from pushovers, the team was entering its
After a massive comeback to close out the game against the 49ers in Week 1, the Lions head into their game against the Packers facing another tough challenge against a motivated squad coming off an embarrassing loss to the Saints. Can Jared Goff and the offense keep the hot hand they discovered late against the
Per the transaction report, the Detroit Lions have claimed CB/KR Corey Ballentine off waivers, filling the vacated spot on their roster after placing Jeff Okudah on injured reserve. The roster now sits at the maximum of 53-players. Ballentine was selected by the New York Giants in the sixth round of the 2019 draft, and played
Allen Park — The Detroit Lions’ injury list grew a bit between their first and second game, with each of the team’s top two running backs among players dealing with an issue. After battling a groin injury through much of training camp, D’Andre Swift was a full practice participant the first week of the regular season, but
An angry Aaron Rodgers is a dangerous Aaron Rodgers, and Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell is preparing for the most menacing version of the three-time MVP quarterback when his team faces the Green Bay Packers on Monday night. “I know this,” Campbell said before practice Thursday. “New Orleans kicked the hornet’s nest so we’re going
Allen Park — Detroit Lions running back Jamaal Williams spent his first four seasons with the Green Bay Packers, but the team opted to go a different direction this offseason after drafting AJ Dillon in the second round of the 2020 NFL Draft. Williams admits the separation stung, but it’s not something he’s taken personally. “(Shoot), it ain’t
The Detroit Lions face off against the Green Bay Packers this week and because the game is on Monday instead of Sunday, there is a slight schedule change in how the injury report is released. The first report of the week comes out on Thursday—instead of Wednesday—and the teams don’t have to declare injury designations

On Monday, the Detroit Lions placed CB Jeff Okudah on injured reserve, but now three days later they have yet to fill his vacated roster spot, and they’re not in any rush to do so either. “I think right now we’re just – we’re kind of holding right now,” coach Dan Campbell said at Thursday’s
Allen Park — If the Detroit Lions have any intention of keeping rookie Penei Sewell at left tackle, even after Taylor Decker returns from injury, it’s a topic that hasn’t been broached with the team’s offensive line coach Hank Fraley. “I’ll just be honest, there’s been no discussion on that stuff,” Fraley said Wednesday. “Right now, Taylor, in
If the Detroit Lions are planning to move Taylor Decker to right tackle when he returns from finger surgery next month, no one has brought Lions offensive line coach Hank Fraley in on those plans. Fraley said Thursday he still considers Decker the Lions’ left tackle and there has been no talk about keeping rookie
We could all see what happened Sunday at Ford Field, but there’s plenty going on down there on the sidelines we miss out on. The Detroit Lions released their latest Sights and Sounds video, which offers a more intimate look at what was happening during the San Francisco 49ers game. These segments are always neat,
Speculation continues to grow that Detroit Lions first-round rookie offensive tackle Penei Sewell should stay at left tackle after replacing the injured Taylor Decker and holding his own in the season opener against the San Francisco 49ers. But the coaching staff isn’t budging from their long-term plans to keep him at right tackle once Decker
When I brought up blocking to Detroit Lions rookie wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown, a huge grin appeared on his face. This week, a video of St. Brown plastering two 49ers defenders on separate chip blocks went viral. At the time of writing this, over 75,000 people have viewed it. St. Brown knew immediately what
