The NFL recently released concussion data for 2024. There were 182 total concussions during the year which includes preseason, regular season, and practices. That averages out to 5.7 per team. The Lions, by my count, had six official concussions during the 2024 season which is right at the league average. Looking back to 2023, the

Draft season is heating up with the Scouting Combine happening next week in Indianapolis. 329 draft prospects will be in town to get interviewed and evaluated. Draft boards and free agency will start to take shape. So, too, will mock drafts. Even more so than they are now. A recent one came from the beat
For the second time in a week, the Detroit Lions are losing a front office staffer to the college football ranks. Days after Lions Director of Scouting Advancement Mike Martin left to become the GM of the Notre Dame Fighting Irish football program, the Lions are losing Director of Football Compliance Jon Dykema.

Third down is the money down in football. It’s about moving the chains or punching the ball in the end zone, depending on the situation. This is where offenses and, almost more specifically, wide receivers, make their money. In 2024, two Lions receivers did just that. In a stat provided by The 33rd Team, the
The Detroit Lions, for the first time—really ever—have themselves a coaching tree. Dan Campbell has two major branches now, with Ben Johnson the head coach of the Chicago Bears, and Aaron Glenn the coach of the New York Jets. But it would be foolish to think that’s where the trees will be cut short.

The NFL hasn’t yet set the salary cap for the upcoming 2025 season, but a report from ESPN’s Dan Graziano indicates that the figure will be some $25 million higher than it was in 2024. It’s a much higher bump than has been widely projected, meaning teams will likely have more cap room to work
The Detroit Lions front office is the envy of the NFL. Brad Holmes has done a sensational job drafting talent and managing contract extensions. Along with losing key personnel from Dan Campbell’s coaching staff, several members of the Lions’ front office have also been recruited for jobs elsewhere. The Lions Front Office:
Did anyone else notice that the Detroit Lions got fined a lot this season? Well, if you haven’t, the NFL definitely has. They had quite the running tab on the Lions in 2024. They fined the team 20 times for a grand total of $444,007. That puts them at ninth in the league for total
One of the common themes this off-season will be about how the Detroit Lions need to revamp their defensive line. There’s no questioning that it’s something that needs improvement. Especially since key players such as Aidan Hutchinson and Alim McNeill are returning from significant injuries. We have no idea how either player will respond to
The Detroit Lions are in an interesting place with their interior offensive line right now. They could potentially lose Kevin Zeitler to free agency if they’re not able to bring him back and then there’s a possibility that Graham Glasgow could be a cap casualty. The Lions do have Christian Mahogany and from what we
Detroit Lions cornerback Carlton Davis is facing free agency in a couple of weeks, and it’s unclear if he’ll run it back for another season with Detroit. However, during a recent appearance on the “Slightly Decent” podcast, Davis made some comments that suggest he may want to come back. The Lions cornerback spent about four…
I looked at this tweet and all I could think about was Hendon Hooker and everything that was said about Hendon Hooker by the Lions coaching staff over the summer. “He just needs reps. And it doesn’t matter if it’s us or it’s them or it’s a game, he just needs reps and reps and
Shortly after Cleveland Browns All-Pro pass-rusher Myles Garrett went public with his request to be traded to an advertised Super Bowl contender, Garrett was spotted at the “NFL Honors” show speaking with Detroit Lions defensive superstar Aidan Hutchinson and Detroit quarterback Jared Goff. On the latest edition of “The Squeeze” podcast, Hutchinson addressed that conversation
The Detroit Lions’ 2024 coaching staff will be one for the ages. It feels like one of those years where we’ll look back in a couple decades and ask ourselves, “How the hell did they manage to have all of those coaches in one building?” From top to bottom, offense to defense, Detroit had incredibly…
Earlier this week, the Detroit Lions finalized their 2025 coaching staff. In total, 10 new hires were made, while several internal coaches received promotions or changes to their responsibilities. The major changes happened at the coordinator positions, where the Lions lost both Ben Johnson and Aaron Glenn to head coaching jobs elsewhere. The Lions filled…
The dreaded ACL tear is one of the most feared NFL injuries as it entails a long recovery. The recovery timeline, which is usually around 10-11 months, will often impact the next season. Fortunately though, players will usually return to their previous level of performance with time. There were 38 ACL tears in 2024 NFL
Bears Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic doesn’t see veteran TE Gerald Everett back with the team next season as the Bears can save a $6.5 million cap hit in 2025 and incur only $1 million of dead cap by letting him go. According to Brad Biggs, the Bears are expected to promote assistant strength coach
Darius Slay was the latest guest on the St. Brown Brothers podcast, and it didn’t take long for the conversation to turn to his NFL future. After winning his first Super Bowl over a week ago, Slay has said that he’d like 2025 to be his final season, and he told the St. Brown brothers…
A couple weeks back at the NFL Honors award show, reporter Steve Wyche captured a viral photo of Detroit Lions’ Jared Goff and Aidan Hutchinson surrounding Browns defensive end Myles Garrett in conversation.
