The Detroit Lions officially named six players as team captains for the 2024 season. For a strong contender with most of the primary players returning from a year ago, it was pretty easy to predict who would get selected to be captains for the coming year.
As selected by the players and coaches, the Lions captains for 2024:
- QB Jared Goff
- WR Amon-Ra St. Brown
- RT Penei Sewell
- EDGE Aidan Hutchinson
- LB Alex Anzalone
- LB Jalen Reeves-Maybin (special teams)
All but Hutchinson were team captains in 2023. No. 97 joins the captaincy circle, taking the place of now-departed veteran Charles Harris.
The Lions social media team had some fun with the announcement of the captains, as they are wont to do…
