Detroit Lions backup quarterback race highlights preseason finale
The Detroit Lions enter their final preseason game with likely most of their roster spots decided, but one that may still be up in the air is the backup quarterback job.

Observations: Detroit Lions offense closes camp with strong scrimmage
The Detroit Lions closed out training camp with a competitive scrimmage-style practice. And after a very strong month from the Lions defense, it was nice to see the offense put together a solid string of practices to close out camp.

Detroit Lions training camp injury news: Very shorthanded at center
The Detroit Lions have had some bad luck at center, and that may continue moving forward. It started when Cade Mays suffered a fractured wrist and backup Juice Scruggs missed time with his own injury. Scruggs is thankfully back and set to be the starter. But, now, with training camp concluded on Thursday, the Lions […]
Detroit Lions sign CB, place EDGE on IR
The Detroit Lions are holding their final training camp practice of the 2026 offseason on Thursday, but that doesn’t mean the front office is done trying to find solutions for the roster.

Detroit Lions mailbag: Is the defense finally good?
The Detroit Lions defense has been on display this preseason.

On Wednesday, coach Dan Campbell even expressed his confidence in the defense’s front seven. “I feel really good with […]
Discussion: Who has been the biggest surprise of Detroit Lions training camp?
On Thursday, Detroit Lions training camp will come to a close.

9 standouts from Day 18 of Detroit Lions training camp
Wednesday’s practice was originally planned to be a more intense session, potentially even a scrimmage. However, Dan Campbell opted to be smart with the workload after the team was “humming yesterday in a good way,” electing to dial things back for a one-hour practice in shells. The practice was still competitive, but given its concise […]

Campbell would not specify […]

Micah Parsons gives Lions RB Jahmyr Gibbs MASSIVE compliment
The NFL Top 100 list for 2026 is nearing its end. It’s not a list I care too much about because I know most players who are polled for this list don’t take it too seriously. That said, I do enjoy the videos they put out for each selection in the top-100. It offers some […]
Detroit Lions film study: We don’t shoot gaps here
Dan Campbell was asked Tuesday whether the Detroit Lions would be “shooting gaps” more often with lighter personnel and more nickel looks. His answer was emphatic. “No, no no, we don’t shoot gaps.
