Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson shocked the world once again when he bowed out of the head coaching search after being the NFL’s hottest head coaching candidate of the offseason.

Following the 2024 NFL draft, the consensus from most NFL experts is that the Detroit Lions did very well. Lions General Manager Brad Holmes and Head Coach Dan Campbell earned high praise for concentrating on the team’s weakest positions and drafting up when necessary to get specific players that best met those needs. Sports Illustrated’s

It took Sam LaPorta only one season in the NFL to establish himself as one of the best tight ends in the league. The former Iowa star was one of Jared Goff’s favorite targets with the Detroit Lions in 2023, hauling in 86 passes for 889 yards and 10 touchdowns. LaPorta was named a second-team

The Detroit Lions went out and got their man in the first-round of the 2024 NFL Draft when they traded up to the 24th pick to get Alabama cornerback Terrion Arnold. After all this time, it’s still crazy the way the draft worked out to get Arnold to Detroit.  Arnold has been outspoken so far

The Detroit Lions are having some high profile weddings all of a sudden. We already saw quarterback Jarred Goff marry Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Christen Harper last weekend, now we’re seeing Lions running back Jake Funk marry Hannah Ann Slus.  Fans of the The Bachelor and the Bachelorette know who Slus is. She won The Bachelor

The Detroit Lions season is quickly approaching. Before you know it, you’ll be in sitting down watching the Lions take on the Rams on Sunday Night football from Ford Field.  Now is the time that people are going to be planning their trips to the stadium and sitting down and figuring out which games they

Mattel’s Magic 8 Ball has been making predictions since 1946. We ran a few questions about the Detroit Lions by one, and the results were mostly positive. For those unfamiliar with the concept, users ask yes-no questions to the ball, give it a shake and then turn it over to reveal the answer. We opted

Jared Goff has been written off at multiple times in his NFL career, but he has continually found a way to come back swinging. The Detroit Lions‘ star quarterback might even top his game from last year in addition to blowing up the quarterback salary market. At least, that is what one league analyst believes.

Lions Lions WRs coach Antwaan Randle El said he’s never seen any complacency in WR Amon-Ra St. Brown.  “Cats get complacent and you don’t see it in him,” Randle El, via LionsWire. “You haven’t seen it in him yet, and I don’t expect you will. So I think he’s in a good spot (and will)

In the last 10 years of my career, I’ve got to do some cool things covering the Detroit Lions and the NFL, But I’ve never got to interview someone who was living in the future before until Tuesday night when we talked Elecom Kobe Finies quarterback David Pindell who was talking to us on Wednesday

As the 2024 NFL season continues to draw closer, the Detroit Lions continue to be one of the most intriguing teams to monitor in the entire league. Following an impressive 2023 campaign that saw them make it all the way to the NFC Championship Game, there are many who view the Lions as a legitimate

Just go into a zone to discover the dynasty value of Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown.  St. Brown flourished against the zone coverages last season, producing an NFL-high 84 receptions, 1,180 yards, and 56 first downs versus the defensive scheme, helping the Lions capture the NFC North title and make a playoff run

There’s no better time than now for the Detroit Lions. After a surprising Super Bowl run that turned them into the best underdog story of the year, the Dan Campbell-led Lions are eager to prove to everyone that their miracle run to the NFC Championship was anything but a fluke. Their pursuit of a first

The Detroit Lions still have some questions when it comes to their defensive line. There is no doubt that the addition of DJ Reader is going to help when it comes to both stopping the run and getting to the quarterback, but who’s going to be doing the latter on the opposite side of Aidan

One of the big questions we’ve been getting a lot in our Detroit Lions mailbag series here at A to Z Detroit is some sort of variation of “what will the Lions do with Sione Vaki in 2024?” Today we’re going to attempt to answer that in a way that’s not simply saying “everything.”  Here’s

What a year 2024 has been for Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff so far. He started the year off leading the Lions to their first playoff win in over 30 years against his former team while an entire stadium chanted his name.  Then he became one of the leagues highest paid players when he signed

Immaculate Grid is a funny NFL game to follow during the offseason. Especially until training camp begins, the news cycle gets slower. Even if you are a fantasy football general manager, there’s not much action this time of the year. So, the trivia game is a solid option to keep your football brain active. And if

Ok, we know you might be a combination of a few things right now after seeing the title. Maybe you’re worried or maybe you’re mad. Maybe you’re a little more level headed and this makes sense to you. The fact is that Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta did something crazy last year. Something that

I know Detroit Lions fans have been waiting on this one. We’ve been asked a lot about when the Lions will release tickets for fans to attend training camp in Allen Park this year. The Lions dropped all that info on Tuesday morning. Here are the dates you can attend: July 27th at 8:30 AM-

The Detroit Lions have quickly become one of the best teams in the NFL. So it feels a little weird when you complain about someone saying something bad about them these days. Still, ESPN did something so laughable that it had to be complained about.  They had multiple reporters come together to put together a
