After finishing near the bottom of the league last year in sacks (30th) and pressures (29th), the Detroit Lions made it a point to invest heavily in their pass rush this offseason. Two early picks in the NFL Draft were spent on the defensive line, adding Aidan Hutchinson and Josh Paschal in the first and
Rookie defensive end Aidan Hutchinson posted a nice video to Instagram and Twitter that follows his experience on draft day. The cameras were on from early preparations to get dressed and share inspirational messages with family to the post-selection festivities as a newly-drafted Detroit Lion. The video is nearly six minutes in length and has
The list of things Matt Patricia got wrong is long, but former lineman T.J. Lang has defended the former Detroit Lions head coach on one particular decision. T.J. Lang spent the final two of his 10 NFL seasons with the Detroit Lions, after eight with the Green Bay Packers. His final season, 2018–cut to six
It didn’t make a lot of sense before the offseason, and now it certainly makes no sense for the Lions to be in on Jimmy Garoppolo at a newly proposed cost. The idea the Detroit Lions could pursue a trade for San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo isn’t necessarily new, as it first seemed to
Time will tell how he progresses from his ACL tear, but the lead writer for the Lions’ website has made a prediction for when Jameson Williams will make his NFL debut. Despite the fact he suffered a torn ACL in January’s national championship game, the Detroit Lions made a bold move to the 12th overall
Looking back at the Detroit Lions’ 2021 roster in Week 3, and it isn’t very inspiring at the receiver position. Kalif Raymond led the position group with 47 snaps against the Baltimore Ravens with Quintez Cephus (45), Amon-Ra St. Brown (27) and Trinity Benson (24) all getting significant playing time as well. It’s no wonder
We’re in a lull in the NFL calendar, one the league that never sleeps is probably dreaming up ways to exploit. The draft is over, rookie minicamp is done, the start of organized team activities is a few days away and football’s summer hiatus is nearing, so it seems like a good time to knock
Victor Bolden Jr., a former Detroit Lion and current Birmingham Stallion, is the USFL’s all-purpose yards leader with 836 at the midpoint of the season. The Detroit Lions have notably added to their wide receiver group this offseason (DJ Chark, Jameson Williams), and they also re-signed Josh Reynolds and Kalif Raymond. Victor Bolden Jr., currently
Lions cornerback Amani Oruwariye is certainly a rising star, but could he make the leap all the way to the Pro Bowl in 2022? Without Amani Oruwariye, we should shudder at the thought of how bad the Detroit Lions secondary would have been in 2021. He had six of the team’s 11 interceptions, only one other
The Detroit Lions 2022 preseason schedule is now official, and here’s a look at the dates, times and opponents for the three contests. We know when the Detroit Lions will have their 17 regular season games and bye week during the 2022 regular season. We’ve also known who they will have their three preseason games
Though the Detroit Lions released their full 17-game schedule for the 2022 regular season last week, they had only revealed the order of their preseason opponents—not the specifics of each game. On Friday, the team announced their full three-game exhibition schedule. The Lions open up their preseason schedule at home against the Atlanta Falcons. In
The Detroit Lions have a training camp for the 2022 NFL season coming soon and it is important for the Lions to look at the Lions training camp battles to help and see who will make the 2022 Detroit Lions roster. Players such as Jeffrey Okudah, Jerry Jacobs, and Quintez Cephus have some questions to
Credit: Milwaukee Journal Sentinel-USA TODAY Sports If the Detroit Lions are to be successful in 2022, these three players in particular will have to “prove it”. The Detroit Lions finished 3-13-1 last year, a disappointing season that landed them the No. 2 overall pick in April’s draft and ultimately defensive end Aidan Hutchinson. Then, with
Detroit Lions OTAs being next week. A three-week event—with mandatory minicamp stuffed in the middle—those practices represent the last real bit of news we’re likely to get before training camp. In other words, prepare for the void ahead. It’s coming faster than you think. But that won’t stop us from pushing out content and interacting
A pair of former NFL pros scouting new Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams is beyond convinced he’s the real deal. In a short clip posted by The 33rd Team, former New York Jets cornerback and 2010 first-round pick Kyle Wilson and former Jets receiver and Pro Bowler Laveranues Coles evaluated the rookie receiver. Because
One word you will always hear of of any coach’s mouth, at almost any level, is the word competition. Competing against opponents on gamedays, and against teammates in practice—competition is going to be prevalent in any healthy NFL organization. As we get closer to August, both the temperature and the competition level will ratchet up.
Continuing to fill the offseason void familiarizing ourselves with the Detroit Lions’ newest additions, we shift our attention this week to wide receiver Jameson Williams. The team traded up 20 spots to secure the speedy, productive wideout in the first round of last month’s NFL Draft. We’ve seen the highlights and read what others have had to
In Pro Football Focus’ re-grade of the 2021 draft, the Detroit Lions got an upgraded mark. Usually, it takes about three years to get a credible evaluation of an NFL draft class for each team, good or bad. But that doesn’t stop us from declaring immediate winners and losers, and reviewing occassionally with bits of
In a continued effort to address the league’s lack of head-coaching and front-office diversity, the NFL announced plans for an inaugural leadership development program on Thursday, aiming to help build and strengthen the pipeline for female and minority candidates. The NFL announced 60 participants will participate in the two-day program, which will take place next week, coinciding
