Detroit Lions News: Penei Sewell Injury Update, Lions Defense Dominates Practice

Last week, the Detroit Lions wanted to run a scrimmage, but injuries caused them to shift strategies. To officially close out training camp, the Lions went back to the scrimmage format for what was essentially an entire game. They even left for the locker room to simulate a halftime feel.

Without a doubt, it was an utterly dominant performance from the defense all day. The Lions’ first teamers went up against each other for 11 drives, and here were the results of each one:

3 plays, punt
5 plays, punt
1 play, INT (pick six)
6 plays, FG
3 plays, punt
4 plays, INT
7 plays, TD
7 plays, FG
7 plays, TD
13 plays, TD
4 plays, turnover on downs
While it was a much better performance for the offense in the second half, most of those drives were either aided by good starting position or drive-extending penalties.

It wasn’t any better for the reserve offenses, either. Their six total drives resulted in one touchdown, one missed field goal, an interception, a turnover on downs, and two punts.

Here’s a breakdown of each first-team drive, combined with some key plays from the reserves.
