Frank Ragnow ‘has plenty in him’ to play, Lions’ door remains open
On Wednesday, Detroit Lions offensive line coach Hank Fraley offered a little more insight into the crazy week that included Frank Ragnow coming out of retirement only to go back into retirement upon failing his physical.

The Detroit Lions could be getting an important piece of their offensive line back soon, as starting left guard Christian Mahogany has returned to practice, which starts his 21-day injury evaluation clock. In Week 9 against the Vikings, Mahogany suffered a lower leg injury after his leg swung into a defender, forcing him from the […]
Lions EDGE Al-Quadin Muhammad wins NFC DPOW
Another Detroit Lions player has won weekly honors from the NFL, but not one you’d normally think of. After his three-sack performance against the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday night, Al-Quadin Muhammad has been named NFC Defensive Player of the Year. It’s the fourth time a Lions player has been named Player of the Week, with […]

Discussion: Which Detroit Lions player would you pull out of retirement?
On Tuesday, the Indianapolis Colts signed quarterback Philip Rivers, who had been in retirement for five years and was a semifinalist for the Pro Football Hall of Fame for the 2026 class. The 44-year-old quarterback could very well be the reason the Colts—at 8-5 but without starter Daniel Jones for the rest of the season—make […]
Detroit Lions scouting report: The Los Angeles Rams are a complete team
So we meet again, Matthew Stafford. The former Detroit Lions starting quarterback faces his former team for the fourth time in five years in Week 15. In the first matchup back in 2021, the Los Angeles Rams won 28-19, but since then, Stafford hasn’t defeated his former team. The Lions beat the Rams in the […]

The Detroit Lions’ 2025 coaching staff is already starting to get picked apart.

Detroit Lions re-sign CB Arthur Maulet, waive TE
The Detroit Lions announced on Tuesday that they have re-signed cornerback Arthur Maulet to the 53-man roster and waived tight end Ross Dwelley to make room for him.

NFL Week 15 power rankings: Are the Lions a top 10 team?
The Detroit Lions (8-5) got back in the win column, convincingly beating a hot Dallas Cowboys team by two touchdowns. But was that enough to sway voters to put the Lions back inside their top-10 rankings? Let’s take a look at how things shook out in this week’s power rankings. The Ringer: 5 (Previous rank: […]
How Detroit Lions’ playoff, NFC North odds changed in Week 14
It’s not hyperbole to say the Detroit Lions saved their season with a Thursday night win over the Dallas Cowboys. Had they lost that game, their only likely path to the postseason would be to finish the year going 4-0 against a moderately tough schedule. Instead, the Lions have a little wiggle room. Detroit can […]
Detroit Lions plan to play rookie G Miles Frazier vs. Rams
On Monday, Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell showed some reservations about playing rookie guard Miles Frazier this week after the 2025 fifth-round pick got his first NFL action last week against the Dallas Cowboys.

Detroit Lions host former Rams safety, favorite of Brad Holmes
As the Detroit Lions continue to look for solutions at safety after losing Brian Branch for the season to a torn Achilles, an interesting name has emerged from the NFL transaction wire.

Eagles at Chargers, Week 14 MNF fan discussion
Week 14 comes to a close with a “Monday Night Football” matchup featuring the Philadelphia Eagles (8-4) and the Los Angeles Chargers (8-4). From an NFC playoff perspective, there’s not a ton for Detroit fans to pull for in this game. However, there is a tiny chance an Eagles loss could help the Lions, which […]
Detroit Lions plan to return Christian Mahogany to practice this week
It appears Detroit Lions starting left guard Christian Mahogany could be closer to a return than expected. The second-year offensive lineman out of Boston College broke his leg in Week 9 against the Minnesota Vikings, but coach Dan Campbell said on Monday that they are currently planning to return him to practice this week. “We’ll […]
Report: Lions signing former interception leader after Brian Branch injury
The Detroit Lions won a pivotal game in their Week 14 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys, but despite improving their odds to qualify for the playoffs, it came at a cost.

Week 15 could be rough for Detroit Lions’ playoff hopes
Week 14 was relatively kind to the Detroit Lions when it comes to their overall playoff odds. Most importantly, the Lions took care of business against the Dallas Cowboys, which pushed Detroit’s playoff probabilities from around 25-30% to 45-55%, depending on which model you prefer. While the Lions didn’t get external help because of Seahawks […]
Discussion: What should the Detroit Lions do at tight end?
Over a few short weeks, tight end has gone from a position of strength for the Detroit Lions to a glaring weakness. A season-ending injury to star Sam LaPorta alone threw the position into disarray, but the additional injury to Brock Wright left the Lions with scraps. Entering Week 15, Detroit’s active tight ends are […]
