Former Tennessee Vols quarterback Hendon Hooker has had a nice preseason so far for the Detroit Lions.

Three of the four missed the second preseason matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs due to injuries.

Like the Detroit Lions, I was desperate to find a way to fix the team’s receiving corps ahead of the season, so I cooked up a trade package that would send Kalif Raymond to Ravens. Obviously a good number of Lions weren’t happy about that. The big response that I got was that “Kalif Raymond
The Lions have Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams as their top two wide receivers. After that, it’s anyone’s guess. Undrafted rookie Isaiah Williams has made a strong case this preseason and has been moved around the field as the Lions look for answers. Other than that, no receiver has really taken hold of a
Yes, it’s another receiver article. We’ve got a lot of them. It’s because it’s the Lions top problem right now. One of the big ways they can fix it is by going after a receiver that could be hitting the open market soon after their current team cuts them. Jeremy Reisman of, my old stomping
The Detroit Lions continue to sign linebackers like it’s going out of style. Last week they signed Abraham Beauplan, before that it was Ty Summers, Malik Jefferson and Ben Niemann.

The Detroit Lions are making some final moves before the start of the 2024 NFL regular season. The team recently experienced an injury to their quarterback Hendon Hooker, who suffered a concussion during the preseason. While it may not be as important as the starting job, the backup quarterback position is crucial to a team’s
Former Lions running back Kevin Smith was a pretty good football player during his time in the NFL. Turns out he’s also pretty good in basketball as well. Smith, who spent five seasons with the Lions from 2008-2012, is now the running backs coach for Lane Kiffin at Ole Miss. He is in his second
The roster tinkering during Detroit Lions training camp continues, and it rolls forward with another linebacker joining the den. The Lions are signing veteran LB Joel Iyiegbuniwe. A 2018 fourth-round pick by the Chicago Bears out of Western Kentucky, the 28-year-old has 65 games of NFL experience between the Bears and Panthers franchises. He was
Iyiegbuniwe, 28, was drafted by the Bears in the fourth round out of Western Kentucky. He played out the final year of a four-year, $3.1 million rookie contract and became a free agent in 2022. The Seahawks signed Iyiegbuniwe to a one-year deal but ended up releasing him during training camp. From there, he spent
The public is leaning heavily toward the hangover of letting a Super Bowl appearance slip away being less severe than the headache of actually losing the Super Bowl. The Detroit Lions led 24-10 at halftime in San Francisco in last year’s NFC Championship Game, only to see the 49ers storm back for a 34-31 victory.
The Detroit Lions pulled off a stunning exhibition win in Kansas City, heading into Arrowhead Stadium and beating the Chiefs, 24-23, in the second preseason game for each team. Kicker Jake Bates drilled home a game-winning 43-yard field goal as time expired to lift the Lions to the win in a game where the Chiefs
Ok, I need everyone to just walk with me on this one, becasue what I’m saying here about the Detroit Lions’ selection of Giovanni Manu is not totally against Manu. It’s against where Manu was taken and what the Lions didn’t do and how that’s affecting them now. We’re a one week away from the
Gosder Cherilus is a name most Detroit Lions fans haven’t heard in a while. The former first-round offensive lineman is back in the news, and unfortunately it’s not for a good reason.

The Detroit Lions second preseason game is in the books. A 24-24 win over the Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead after a big Jake Bates walk off 43-yard field goal. As we go into our final week of training camp, the answers as to who could make the team’s 53 man roster are really starting
The 2023 Detroit Lions defense wasn’t great at a lot of things, most of which involved the forward pass. But coordinator Aaron Glenn’s defense did accomplish a couple of very impressive feats in run defense. No team allowed fewer rushing yards to opposing running backs than the Lions did a year ago. Stripping the quarterback
Congratulations are in order for Teddy Bridgewater. The former Lions quarterback got the win in his first game as the head coach of his high school alma mater. Bridgewater was with the Lions in 2023, signed during training camp when the Lions sorely needed help with injuries and competence in the role behind Jared Goff.
