For this week’s survey, we gave fans five groups to choose from to answer our question: Offensive skill players, […]
More good injury news for the Detroit Lions. According to Fox 2 Detroit’s Dan Miller, cornerback Ennis Rakestraw—who left Thursday’s practice early—only has an ankle injury that is not considered serious. His status for Saturday afternoon’s preseason game is to be determined, per Miller. It’s a relief for both Rakestraw and the Lions. During Thursday’s […]
For the first time in 2026, your Detroit Lions are back inside the friendly confines of Ford Field, playing in their second preseason game of the year as they host the Washington Commanders.

In just over a week, the Detroit Lions will have to reduce their roster total from 90 players to 53. It’s a devastating day for players, and a tough one for front offices who often agonize over the final few roster spots. Through training camp practices and preseason performances, we do our best to try […]
According to the daily NFL transaction wire, the Detroit Lions tried out two veteran guards on Thursday: Will Hernandez and Laken Tomlinson. As of Thursday evening, neither player had signed with Detroit, but it is certainly notable that the team is looking at the guard position. It is likely no coincidence that the Lions are […]
Observations are going to be relatively short from Thursday’s practice, because the Detroit Lions opted to finish this week of training camp by winding things down.

Lions cornerback Ennis Rakestraw suffered an injury toward the end of practice and did not return. Let’s get more into that injury and […]
The Detroit Lions will take on the Washington Commanders in their second game of the 2026 preseason on Saturday afternoon.

On Thursday, Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell offered an injury update on a couple of players, but none were more important than his star tight end, Sam LaPorta. Per Campbell, LaPorta suffered a hip injury in practice recently, and the team is holding him out to let it calm down. “He got hit in the […]
On Wednesday night, the Detroit Lions quietly dropped a short video entitled “Jack Campbell: Under the Lights.” It’s a profile on the Lions’ starting MIKE linebacker, and gives some insight into the position and what makes him so good at it. But what was profoundly amazing in the video is when Campbell talks about his […]
The 2025 Detroit Lions season was one to forget. Coming off a historic 2024 season, which was cannibalized by injuries and a disappointing NFC Divisional Round exit to the Washington Commanders, expectations were high. Unfortunately, the injuries returned, and the team couldn’t overcome them, finishing 9-8 and missing the playoffs entirely. For 2026, the expectations […]
The Detroit Lions will kickoff their second game of the preseason, this time at home against the Washington Commanders on Saturday, and as the possibilities and promise of a summer’s training camp fade into the night, the rise of the midnight sun comes to sweat you in your bed.

We’re past the halfway point of training camp, and we’re rapidly approaching cutdown date.

They already lost fifth-round pick Kendrick Law for the season, Jimmy Rolder has been out since the first week of training camp, and second-round pick Derrick Moore suffered a groin injury early this month. But Moore has recently returned, and […]
