Amon-Ra St. Brown was one of the last players off the field on the first day of Detroit Lions training camp Wednesday, and there’s a good chance that will be the case most days this year. St. Brown spent a solid 10 minutes after practice catching passes off a JUGS machine. And while he wasn’t

Allen Park — Here are some notes and observations from the Detroit Lions first training camp practice Wednesday. ► These observations are probably going to be light for the first few days of camp. Before practice, coach Dan Campbell laid out his plan to slowly get the players reacclimated. He said the first two days of practice would
Allen Park — This isn’t new to Lions defensive tackle Michael Brockers. During his nine seasons with the Rams, he experienced the significant changes that come with a different coaching staff when head coach Jeff Fisher was fired and replaced by Sean McVay. Entering his first year in Detroit, Brockers once again is part of a
Allen Park — The Detroit Lions have a new running back. No, not Todd Gurley. In fact, it’s none of free agents or undrafted players who continue to linger on the market. Instead, the team found an in-house solution for its need for roster depth, moving defensive back Godwin Igwebuike to the opposite side of the ball. “He’
Allen Park — The Detroit Lions opened training camp on Wednesday without one of their top special-teams players, placing linebacker Jalen Reeves-Maybin on the reserve/COVID-19 list. He joined a group of three other players on inactive lists. Earlier this week, the Lions announced linebacker Austin Bryant would begin camp on the physically unable to perform list,
The Detroit Lions placed a second player on the reserve COVID-19 list on Day 1 of training camp Wednesday, but head coach Dan Campbell said the team is trending “the right way” with its vaccination rate. More than 80% of Lions players have received at least one shot, Campbell said. “I would say we’re getting
Allen Park — A week after the NFL announced in a memo that there would be no game postponements due to the COVID-19 virus, the Detroit Lions are making positive progress with player vaccinations. According to coach Dan Campbell, more than 80% of the roster has been vaccinated ahead of the start of training camp. That
I’m not a gambler. I’ve only played fantasy football a few times. Yes, I won a little bit of money, but it was a hassle and I didn’t enjoy it. Sorry, but months of agonizing over roster moves wasn’t worth a few hundred bucks. (Clearly, I’m overpaid, but don’t tell my boss. Shhh!) I say
Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers ended their monthslong feud Tuesday when the “Jeopardy!” host and All-Pro quarterback reported for work. As illogical as it sounds — a three-time MVP making (probably) one last run at a Super Bowl with their division rival — that’s good news for the Detroit Lions. Rodgers’ presence makes
Hours after the Detroit Lions announced they had placed defensive tackle Brian Price on the reserve/retired list Tuesday morning, the team was awarded defensive tackle Bruce Hector off waivers. Most recently with the Tennessee Titans, Hector has spent time with three other teams since going undrafted out of South Florida in 2018. He appeared in 11 games for
The Detroit Lions filled one of the two open spots on their 90-man roster Tuesday by claiming defensive tackle Bruce Hector off waivers from the Tennessee Titans. Hector, who last appeared in a game with the Philadelphia Eagles in 2019, takes the roster spot left open by Brian Price’s retirement. The Lions placed Price, who

The Detroit Lions open training camp this week, with veterans reporting Tuesday and the first practice taking place Wednesday.

Another roster spot has opened for the Detroit Lions. The team placed defensive lineman Brian Price on the reserve/retired list. Price, 27, was signed in 2016 by the Green Bay Packers as an undrafted free agent out of UT-San Antonio. His best stint came in with the Cleveland Browns in 2018, recording 10 tackles during 12 games. [ The
The Detroit Lions now have two open roster spots after the team placed defensive tackle Brian Price on the reserve/retired list Tuesday morning. Price originally signed with the Lions in early June, providing depth after former Michigan State standout Joel Heath was lost for the season with an ACL injury. The 6-foot-3, 322-pound Price went undrafted
Ten different defensive backs made at least one start for the Detroit Lions last season, which helps explain why they gave up the most points and yards in the NFL. The Lions entered 2020 with what appeared to be a solid secondary, then suffered a rash of injuries in Week 1 that compounded as the

The Detroit Lions hold their first practice of training camp Wednesday and there is much to be sorted out before the regular season opens Sept. 12 vs. San Francisco. The Lions will have at least five new starters on offense this fall, at quarterback, right tackle and every wide receiver position — and they could have even
