Hooker was in the midst of a terrific final season at Tennessee when he suffered an ACL tear that cut his season short and undermined his draft stock. Detroit added the big-armed passer anyway, viewing him as a talent worth developing behind Goff. The club subsequently signed Teddy Bridgewater to operate as Goff’s QB2, but

The Detroit Lions have earned notoriety over the past few seasons for the level of physicality that they bring to the field. While this is the factor that gives them an edge over their competitors during the regular season, turns out the team under Dan Campbell does not have an ‘OFF’ button when it comes
We all know by now that it’s a dangerous game to buy into offseason hype when it comes to individual players. It’s become a long-running joke now when stories are written in the spring about players “in the best shape of their lives” or the unique offseason training program a player went through that will…
Dan Campbell has switched his view in less than six months. After losing to the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC Championship game, the Detroit Lions head coach had claimed it was their only shot at winning a Super Bowl. However, Campbell has renewed hopes for his team’s success in the 2024 season. As the
Lions quarterback Jared Goff is noted for his decision-making prowess and his tremendous success working the middle of the field as a passer.

Lions head coach Dan Campbell‘s powerful speeches and incredible analogies made waves when the team was featured on HBO’s “Hard Knocks.” Campbell was back at it this week while discussing Detroit’s 2024 season outlook.

On Friday, the NFL released the preseason schedules for all 32 NFL franchises. The league has gone to a three-game preseason schedule in exchange for an extra game on the regular-season schedule. This is true for all teams except the Chicago Bears and Houston Texans, who get one extra with the Hall of Fame game.
NFL offseasons occasionally feature teams running into CBA-driven trouble due to overly physical workouts. This year, the Lions have run afoul of the league’s policy on OTA contact. The defending NFC North champions revealed the NFL and NFLPA informed them of a late-May OTA violation. The team conducted at least one workout deemed too physical
Going into the Detroit Lions minicamp this week, one of the focal points was the play and progress of second-year quarterback Hendon Hooker. After missing his rookie season with a knee injury suffered in his final college game at Tennessee, Hooker remains largely unknown and unproven in the NFL. I got a first glimpse of
Despite a history-making 2023 season ending just a sneeze away from the Super Bowl, the Detroit Lions aren’t letting overconfidence get the best of them.

The Detroit Lions had a breakthrough season in 2023, but they are looking to take the next step in 2024. Coach Dan Campbell knows what that step is, and he used a great analogy to convey it. On Thursday, Campbell emphasized that he wants the team to be more adaptable in certain situations this year.
Unfortunately not everyone is going to make the Detroit Lions 53-man roster. It would cool if the roster was bigger and allowed for more players, but that’s not the case.
