This game sets up nicely for Doubs to bounce back, considering the extra rest for him and his teammates. It also doesn’t hurt that the Packers will face a Broncos team that ranks dead last in pass defense expected points added (EPA) per Nfelo metrics. This prop seems a bit short, as my projections have

Ok, let me start this thing off by saying that I don’t think this will happen for the Detroit Lions. It’s not totally out of the realm of possibility. Players have left teams and then been traded back to them before. That actually happened this week when the Jets traded Mecole Hardman back to the

The Detroit Lions are beginning to separate themselves from the rest of the NFC North. However, there’s plenty of season left for things to change; here are reasons to be optimistic and pessimistic about every team in the division through six weeks.  Chicago Bears (1-5)  Optimist: The best-case scenario for the 1-5 Bears is to

With the number of injuries and byes around the NFL this week, many are probably stuck deciding between some unappealing options to plug into their lineups.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown was forced to wear a pretty embarrassing costume on Thursday due to the outcome of the Notre Dame-USC game. St. Brown, who played for USC, had to wear a leprechaun costume after losing an “agreement made outside of the facility” with Lions defensive lineman and Notre Dame alum

On Wednesday the Detroit Lions had an alarming injury report that featured every running back on their 53-man roster on it. It wasn’t a full fledged practice though. The Lions backed off on things to start the week and had more of a walk though than anything. Jahmyr Gibbs and Brian Branch were included as

Through six weeks, the hierarchy in the NFC North is becoming a bit clearer. Here’s how the teams will fare in Week 7:  Las Vegas Raiders (3-3) at Chicago Bears (1-5): Sunday could be a sloppy affair, especially if both teams start backup quarterbacks. The status of Jimmy Garoppolo (back) and Justin Fields (dislocated finger)

Heading into the season, the talk surrounding Jared Goff was whether he could earn a contract extension from the Detroit Lions. Now, there’s talk about whether Goff can earn the NFL’s Most Valuable Player award. The Lions hold a 2 1/2-game lead in the NFC North entering their road game against the Baltimore Ravens on

The NFL trade deadline is rapidly approaching and with that comes trade rumors. We’ve heard a lot of rumors about players from other teams being on the trade block, but we haven’t heard anything about a Detroit Lions player until Wednesday night.  Spotrac’s Michael Ginnitti put out a list of players that he is hearing

The NFL trade deadline on Oct. 31 is quickly approaching. Here are deals each team in the NFC North should consider. Chicago Bears: Send CB Jaylon Johnson to 49ers  Johnson recently expressed the desire to stay in Chicago but added that he’s “not oblivious” to trade rumors nor the business of the NFL. At 24,

I’ve mostly been against the idea of bringing in Fourtnette or really any running back for the Detroit Lions at this point. Then the Lions dropped their Wednesday injury report and they don’t have a single healthy running back on their 53-man roster. Yes, Jahmyr Gibbs did return to practice on Wednesday. That’s a good

The Bengals, Browns and Ravens were all victorious in Week 6, proving once again that the AFC North race will be a photo finish. Here are predictions for Week 7: Detroit Lions (5-1) at Baltimore Ravens (4-2): The Ravens offense has not had as much success as many believed it would a month and a half

The Detroit Lions and San Francisco 49ers could be headed for a postseason showdown, and veteran defensive back C.J. Gardner-Johnson wants to make sure there is plenty of drama surrounding the matchup if it happens. There has been some bad blood between Gardner-Johnson and 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel from when Gardner-Johnson played for the

Detroit Lions defensive back C.J. Gardner-Johnson has continued his ongoing feud with San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel. The back-and-forth began when a video circulated on social media Sunday of a pregame ruckus between the Niners and Cleveland Browns. During the altercation, Samuel and teammates Brandon Aiyuk and Trent Williams can be seen in

“Don’t be friendly when you see me… ‘cuz I can guard you. You can’t run routes. You’re a running back. You’re a running back,” Gardner-Johnson said on his social media account. He continued, “People gave you a little clout, man, you ain’t nothing, bro, stop playin’.” Detroit Lions vs. Philadephia Eagles; Gardner-Johnson vs. Samuel C.J.

Are you waiting for the next salvo in this C.J. Gardner-Johnson social media war with Deebo Samuel? It’s scintillating dialogue between these two NFL players. If you’re new to this verbal scuffle, the two haven’t liked each other since the NFC Championship game. Gardner-Johnson is a safety for the Lions, while Samuel is a hybrid

Bears Lions Packers Packers S coach Ryan Downard spoke highly of S Rudy Ford and believes that having a full offseason with the team has helped him improve. “He’s just doing his job,” Downard said of Ford, via PackersWire.com. “He’s doing it at a high level. He’s playing hard. When you turn that tape on,

Ibrahim was signed as an undrafted rookie after the 2023 NFL Draft. He was a guy that I was super high on going into camp and believed could make the Lions roster as the teams third running back.  He was trending in the right direction until he suffered an injury in the Lions second preseason

Ok settle down. I know how Lions fans get about nearly every last man on their favorite teams roster. The truth is, there’s some guys on this roster that teams might be interested in that either aren’t working out for the Lions or are players the Lions may be looking to move in order to

There’s certainly no love lost between San Francisco 49ers receiver Deebo Samuel and Detroit Lions safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson. So when a video circulated on social media Sunday of a pregame brawl between the 49ers and Browns, in which Samuel and teammates Brandon Aiyuk and Trent Williams got into a shoving match with Cleveland defensive back
