We’re still thinking about the insane trade suggestion that former Michigan receiver Braylon Edwards came up with when he suggested the Detroit Lions trade Aidan Hutchinson to the Cleveland Browns for Myles Garrett.  The whole thing that led up to that insanity was a short discussion about the players they believed to be untouchable. The

This is a big offseason for the Detroit Lions. It’s the year in which they decide whether or not they’re going to go full win-now mode or not. It’s all the offseason where they have to decide whether or not Jameson Williams should be extended and kept around longer or be given the fifth-year option

Oh boy, we’ve reached the “insane take” part of the offseason super early this year. The Super Bowl hasn’t even happened yet and people are losing their minds.  Earlier in the week All-Pro edge rusher Myles Garrett announced that he has requested that the Cleveland Browns trade him and trade him to a team where

Perhaps Cleveland Browns edge-rusher Myles Garrett is the missing piece of the Detroit Lions’ Super Bowl puzzle.  In an interview with the “Dan Patrick Show,” Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer listed the Lions as his favorite landing spot for Garrett, who requested a trade on Monday.   “I mean, God, the idea of Myles Garrett lining

When you’re an undrafted rookie, it’s really hard to make a 53-man roster. Like, really hard. Especially when it’s at a specialist position and it’s with a team that wants its players to be able to do more than one thing if possible.  This year the Detroit Lions started the year with three undrafted rookies

The Detroit Lions season is sadly over too early and we’ll not be able to talk with players again anytime soon. Luckily we got one more shot to talk with Lions punter Jack Fox at the grand opening of Canes Chicken in Canton, MI on Tuesday.  We talked with Fox about the Lions losing Ben

The Detroit Lions had one thing they really wanted to do last offseason and that was rebuild the secondary. They did just that with two big moves. Trading a third-round pick for Carlton Davis and signing Amik Robertson.  Davis had a very good season for the Lions. One that saw him allow passes his way

On Monday night Cooper Kupp took to Twitter and announced that the Los Angeles Rams have informed him that they will be trading him.  This made everyone in the sports world wonder where he could wind up. We here at AtoZ Sports Detroit felt that Kupp in Detroit makes a lot of sense as he

The Detroit Lions were able to hold onto offensive coordinator Ben Johnson last offseason after he received interest from teams in need of a head coach. Detroit wasn’t so lucky this time around, as Johnson accepted the Chicago Bears’ job.   The Lions responded to that loss by hiring Denver Broncos pass game coordinator John Morton, who was a senior

The NFL offseason is moving fast and the landscape around the league is really starting to change. Myles Garrett asked the Cleveland Browns for a trade and that’s one the Detroit Lions could be interested in, but one that makes a lot of sense for the Lions now is Rams receiver Cooper Kupp.  The Rams

Personally, I’ve never once believed some of the things that I know other writers or Detroit Lions fans believe when it comes to Lions GM Brad Holmes. I totally get why people believe that they have Holmes figured out because during his time here, he’s largely shown us one way of acquiring players and that’s

The sports world has been absolutely insane the last few days. First, the Mavericks traded Luka Donic to the Lakers, and now Cleveland Browns All-Pro edge rusher Myles Garrett has asked to be traded.  This is no doubt going to have every team in the NFL trying to make a deal with the Browns to

Personally, I’ve never once believed some of the things that I know other writers or Detroit Lions fans believe when it comes to Lions GM Brad Holmes.

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff tossed three touchdowns and two defenders scored on interception returns Sunday as the NFC won the flag football game 56-50 and the overall competition 76-63 at the 2025 Pro Bowl Games in Orlando, Fla. Goff completed 10 of 11 passes for 126 yards, while the Arizona Cardinals’ Budda Baker and

ESPN’s Bill Barnwell raised some eyebrows last month when he suggested that the Detroit Lions could consider releasing former Tennessee Vols quarterback Hendon Hooker this offseason.  Hooker, a third round selection by the Lions in the 2023 NFL Draft, attempted just nine passes for Detroit in 2024.  The former Vol was demoted to the No.

The Pro Bowl is always a time for players across the NFL to have some fun at the end of the year. And we got a taste of that in Sunday’s version, when Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs intercepted a pass late in the flag football game. He looked like he was probably going to

The Chicago Bears could be on the verge of adding a major upgrade along one of the NFL’s most inconsistent offensive lines. In the wake of hiring former Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson as head coach, the Bears could look to prioritize one of the more consistently dominant interior linemen in the league to

The Detroit Lions have lost a lot of coaches on the offensive side of the ball in the last few weeks. One of the big losses they’ve had to endure was the loss of tight ends coach Steve Heiden. He joined Aaron Glenn and the New York Jets as their offensive line coach last week. 

Fowler notes the Jaguars won’t be huge spenders in free agency but they want to fortify their secondary and could make a splurge on a spot like corner. He adds Davis could be ranked as high as the No. 2 cornerback available by some teams this March and should have a healthy market.  Davis, 28,

After a shocking early exit in the playoffs, the Detroit Lions will need to address their biggest needs in order to not only get back to the playoffs but go further than they did this year. Their biggest needs come from the front lines both on offense and defense, and they were badly missing Aiden
