Surely in the market for interior defensive line help in the draft, the Detroit Lions have had Baylor defensive tackle Siaki Ika in for a pre-draft visit. The Detroit Lions had an improved defense in line with their 8-2 finish last season. Improvement against the run was notable, outside of Christmas Eve against the Carolina
We know it’s a one-year deal with an incentive-based ceiling, but the full details of Marvin Jones contract with the Detroit Lions are now out.

Two new Lions defensive coaches have wasted no time to talk about Aidan Hutchinson and raise the bar for him heading into his second season.

Allen Park — Jim Hostler is still not totally certain what, exactly, his new role as senior offensive assistant with the Detroit Lions entails. For the moment, he’s just happy to be here. Hostler played cornerback at Indiana University of Pennsylvania back in the 80s, coached both sides of the ball and made stops at
Times weren’t always so tough in Detroit sports. It has been a decade since the city last saw a team advance in the playoffs — when the Tigers beat the A’s in the 2013 ALDS, after Justin Verlander threw eight shutout innings and struck out 10 in win-or-go-home Game 5. (No need to talk about
The Detroit Lions are somewhat easy to tie to the Devin White on the heels of his trade demand, but he feels like a very poor fit in Detroit. A headline came earlier this week when ESPN’s Jenna Laine reported Tampa Bay Buccaneers linebacker Devin White has requested a trade because he’s “fed up” with
The Detroit Lions spent significant time looking into the pass rusher position for the 2023 NFL draft. The Lions would like to upgrade that position in the NFL draft. Lions covet pass rusher Tyree Wilson in the draft. If Tyree Wilson is available, good chance the Lions draft him with the sixth pick. Mike Kimber
Allen Park — If there’s been a roster deficiency the Detroit Lions have yet to address this offseason, it’s the team’s subpar run defense from a year ago. For all the improvements Detroit made defensively down the stretch of the 2022 campaign, stopping the run wasn’t among them. The team allowed 5.2 yards per carry
It’s officially 2023 NFL Draft rumor season, and with just two weeks until the huge event, things are running into overdrive.

John Fox figured he was done with coaching when he was fired by the Chicago Bears the day after the 2017 season ended. Fox was drained from a lifetime in the sport, including nearly two straight decades as a head coach with the Carolina Panthers, Denver Broncos and Bears. He found work as a studio
Years ago, I was walking out of the Detroit Lions locker room with Dre Bly and Ndamukong Suh. Bly was a veteran closing out his career in his final training camp. Suh was a prized and promising rookie. “You wanna trade game checks?” Bly casually asked Suh. I chuckled quietly. Suh, humorless as ever, quietly

While the Detroit Lions were able to avoid losing either of their coordinators to a head coaching job this offseason, they did see a significant amount of overturn in their coaching ranks this offseason.
