2026 season preview: Can Aidan Hutchinson take it up a notch?

The Detroit Lions have a superstar in EDGE Aidan Hutchinson, and the team knows that. They took him with the second overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft with the expectations that he would be a wrecking force on the defensive line. Hutchinson has proven them right, with strong rookie and sophomore seasons. His 2024 […]

Discussion: Which Lions players could earn their first All-Pro nod in 2026?

The Detroit Lions have quietly turned into an All-Pro factory. Since taking over in 2021, general manager Brad Holmes has drafted and signed multiple players that would earn All-Pro votes. It started slow with just Kalif Raymond getting a nod in 2022, but that quickly exploded with five players in 2023, six in 2024, and […]

Discussion: What moment in Detroit Lions history would you change?

A winning or losing season is decided by dozens, if not hundreds, of inflection points. If one play call, penalty, fumble, drop, missed tackle goes the other way, it potentially changes the entire outcome of a game. Similarly, a franchise’s direction also has plenty of moments, decisions, and signings that drastically alter the course of […]

2026 season preview: What’s the next step for Jameson Williams?

Since he was taken 12th overall in the 2022 NFL Draft, Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams has been a bit of a polarizing figure. Coming out of the University of Alabama, Williams was widely regarded as the best receiver prospect in the class prior to tearing his ACL in the final game of his […]

Detroit Lions adding Wolverines executive to scouting department

According to a report from Matt Zenitz of CBS Sports, the Detroit Lions are “expected to hire” Wolverines assistant director of personnel John Collins as a scouting assistant. Collins is a quick up-and-comer throughout the personnel ranks. Collins was a recruiting assistant for Temple for five months before a quick stint as a player personnel […]

Will you attend Lions training camp?

Earlier this week, the Detroit Lions announced that there would be 10 practices during this year’s training camp that would be open to fans. Back in the day, prior to the Dan Campbell and Brad Holmes era, this announcement was typically met with much less fanfare. After all, there wasn’t as much hype around the […]

5 free agent cornerback options for the Detroit Lions

We’re far from knowing how the Terrion Arnold legal saga will end, but as Detroit Lions general manager Brad Holmes said this offseason on the Lions Collective podcast, sometimes it’s the job of an NFL team to be prepared for the worst. “I’m just more of a, let’s call it a pessimistic planner in terms […]

Lions News: ESPN believes Detroit Lions have best weapons in NFL

When we talked to Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Drew Petzing at the NFL Combine, just a little after he was hired for the job, he marveled at the weapons at his disposal. “There’s a lot of different directions you can take it in,” Petzing said. “Ultimately, whatever we do, we want to be very hard […]

Detroit Lions CB Terrion Arnold held without bail, has hearing next week

On Thursday afternoon, Detroit Lions cornerback Terrion Arnold appeared in court virtually after he turned himself in to authorities on Wednesday night. Arnold is facing eight felony accounts in relation to an armed robbery case. During the hearing, the charges were clarified from previous reports. Arnold faces three counts of armed robbery, three counts of […]

Terrion Arnold arrested: Everything you need to know

The Terrion Arnold situation is obviously very fluid and far from resolved at this point. But the Detroit Lions cornerback’s arrest on Wednesday night was certainly newsworthy, and there’s a lot to sift through with this case that has spanned back to February. So on Thursday morning, Ryan Mathews and I got together to run […]

Who will be the Detroit Lions’ starting CBs in 2026?

I’ll admit right off the bat that it doesn’t feel great to talk about the football side of things just hours after Terrion Arnold was arrested and is facing multiple felonies that could result in life in prison. I don’t want to, nor am I seeking to, overlook the human side of this at all. […]

Report: Terrion Arnold arrested, facing multiple felony charges

According to multiple reports, Detroit Lions cornerback Terrion Arnold has been arrested and is facing four counts of kidnapping and four counts of armed robbery that could carry sentences of up to life in prison. This is in connection with the armed robbery case in Tampa, Florida, from earlier this offseason. Previous allegations connected Arnold […]

Lions News: Matthew Stafford owns up to playoff mistakes in Detroit

Matthew Stafford has enjoyed some incredible playoff success with the Los Angeles Rams, currently holding a 7-3 record in the postseason since being traded away from the Detroit Lions. However, he didn’t always have that kind of postseason moxie. In Detroit, he went winless, 0-3, in playoff appearances. In a recent podcast appearance with Chris […]

Lions News: Sam LaPorta attending Tight End U again

Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta may have been limited to walkthroughs at OTAs and minicamp, but that isn’t stopping him from a trip down to Nashville for the sixth-annual Tight End University week of events. Tight End University (or TEU) was founded by George Kittle, Travis Kelce and Greg Olsen in 2021. Each year, […]

6 ‘stock down’ players from Detroit Lions OTAs, minicamp

Earlier this week, we broke down the nine biggest winners from Detroit Lions OTAs and minicamp. Unfortunately, everyone can’t be winners. The following list of six players, whom I believe saw their stock fall over the past month, are far from in trouble. There’s relatively little on the line in the spring, but for various […]

2026 Detroit Lions training camp schedule: 10 dates open to fans

On Tuesday, the Detroit Lions announced 10 dates in which fans will be able to attend training camp practices for the 2026 season. Here’s a look at all 10 practices, half of which will be available to the general public: It is free to attend these practices, but you must acquire a ticket and they […]

Discussion: Which Detroit Lions player will take the biggest jump in 2026?

When it comes to development, players and coaches often talk about the Year 2 jump. As rookies, players are often overwhelmed and overworked in their first season. Their offseason is spent preparing for the draft, then they’re immediately plunged into NFL life. With their heads spinning and minds deep in the playbook, it can be […]

Resetting the Detroit Lions’ depth chart after OTAs, minicamp

On the very first day of Detroit Lions OTAs, coach Dan Campbell offered a warning to reporters and fans. “We’re going to have two fields and walkthrough. So don’t read into all that,” Campbell said. “‘I saw so-and-so on field two.’ Okay. Doesn’t mean anything, the guys know that too.” It’s a fair and necessary […]

2026 Detroit Lions training camp report dates announced

With the conclusion of Detroit Lions OTAs and minicamp last week, all will be relatively quiet for an entire month. But right around the corner is training camp, and on Monday, the league announced report dates for all 32 teams. For the Lions, rookies will report to camp on July 25, and veterans will follow […]

9 winners from Detroit Lions OTAs, minicamp

Before we get into my list of the nine biggest winners from Detroit Lions OTAs and minicamp, let’s make one thing clear: jobs are not won in the spring. Practices are very low-key, and coaches are using most of the time to start installing the playbook and getting their players up to speed mentally. At […]

NFL

Discussion: Which Lions position group has the best depth?

An NFL team’s starting lineup is more of a theory than a truth. For one, injuries arise each season, forcing reshuffling up and down the depth chart. Additionally, teams have not shied away from rotations, from running back carousels to swapping around defensive linemen to present new looks. The Detroit Lions have done their best […]

Discussion: What is the biggest concern for the 2026 Detroit Lions?

The Detroit Lions aren’t considered favorites for the NFC this year, but it may surprise you to hear that they still remain NFC North favorites, according to FanDuel Sportsbook. As we’ve pointed out several times this offseason, Detroit’s roster remains pretty darn strong, and we’re not the only one who think that way. But like […]

Discussion: What is the Detroit Lions’ most interesting position battle?

When it comes to the play on the field, spring practice doesn’t provide much opportunity for true evaluation. The majority of each practice involves a lengthy walkthrough session, and a lot of the team drills are meant to put players in different positions and try out new looks and formations. So after OTAs and minicamp, […]

Watch highlights from Detroit Lions minicamp, with commentary

As one of the lucky few who get to watch Detroit Lions minicamp, I try my best to paint of picture of each practice via our daily observations recaps, and our Pride of Detroit Direct exclusive video podcasts. But as much as I try to report the most relevant news and biggest plays, nothing compares […]
