Relatively speaking, the Detroit Lions have dealt with relatively few injuries during the early days of training camp, and that’s the hope for every team around the league this time of year. A healthy team is a happy team with all the promise in tact for the upcoming season.

Training camp rolls on for the Detroit Lions, as they take the field Tuesday morning for their second (of five) consecutive practices. Coach Dan Campbell is happy with the intensity the team came out on Monday with, which should be no surprise. The team seemed eager to hit from the very first practice. However, Campbell…

Detroit Lions football is back, and we’ve now reached Week 2 of training camp. Players have begun practicing in pads, and as Dan Campbell said prior to Monday’s practice, “This is where guys begin to separate themselves.” Let’s reflect on what’s happened so far in camp over the first four practices and discuss some storylines…

Minutes after signing his three-year, $60 million extension with the Detroit Lions, left tackle Taylor Decker stepped in front of the monster Meijer podium with his daughter Daisy in tow to speak to the media.

With fans in attendance and pads coming on for the first time in camp, the Lions were finally able to unleash their building intensity, making for a highly entertaining day of football.

Monday is a big day at Detroit Lions training camp. Not only is it the first practice that is open to the general public, but it’s expected to be the first day in which players are donning full pads. In other words, expect a ton of energy coming from the stands, and a high-intensity practice…

With the Detroit Lions set to kick off Week 2 of training camp on Monday morning, we felt it was a good opportunity to check in with some of the biggest positional battles after a week of work. Our Bubble Watch series attempts to update you on the latest developments at each position and offer…

Detroit Lions quarterback Hendon Hooker has looked noticeably better in training camp than he did in Organized Team Activities in the spring. He’s more accurate, he looks like he’s in better command of the offense, and he just looks more comfortable. Some of this is likely due to normal progression as a younger player going…

With each passing day, the 2024 NFL preseason grows ever closer, and with it will come our first look at the new Detroit Lions.

The Detroit Lions had never experienced the kind of continuity and consistency at the quarterback position that Matthew Stafford provided. Not in my lifetime, not in my father’s lifetime (who was born in 1960), so not in the entire Super Bowl era for an organization that’s been in the NFL since 1930. The closest names…

The Detroit Lions have been remarkably healthy through the first four days of training camp, and that luck appeared to continue through Saturday’s practice.

On Saturday, the Detroit Lions will take their practice field—newly donned as the Meijer Performance Center—in front of season ticket holders. Without a doubt, that will add some extra juice to practice—not that the Lions need it after a trio of spirited practices during the work week. Still, there will be a buzz in Allen…

The Detroit Lions have produced top-five offenses in back-to-back seasons, which has been the leading source of their recent surge to the NFC Championship Game. That has led many to believe that if the Lions could manage just a top-10 unit on the other side of the ball, a championship run is very much on…

We’re only a few days into training camp and the intensity is already starting to ramp up.

The Detroit Lions practiced in front of an audience for the first time in 2024 training camp, as they welcomed in friends and family members of players, coaches, and organizational employees.

Jacobs’ contract with the Lions expired this offseason after three seasons and 40 games played in Detroit. Over that time, Jacobs tallied 29 starts, 23 passes defended,…

According to reports from MLFootball and Mike Payton of A To Z Sports, the Detroit Lions have worked out UFL kicker Andre Szmyt.
