Fans who have stuck around since the beginning would be able to remember the Lions’ 2008 season, when they made history, but not in a good way. The Lions became the first NFL
There’s no getting around it, Nate Sudfeld has struggled for the Detroit Lions this summer. On the flip side of things, Hendon Hooker has been playing pretty well and showing promise. This seems like an easy situation right? Just cut Sudfeld and move forward with Hooker. But it seems as though the Lions are still
The final preseason game is all about sorting out the Detroit Lions depth.

All eyes are on Russell Wilson and Justin Fields this Saturday as the Steelers face the Detroit Lions in their final NFL Preseason game. A competent offensive performance would ease the minds of Steelers fans and backers, but I’m not sure we should expect a significant uptick in production this week. I’m not sure we
