The Detroit Lions signed free agent quarterback Teddy Bridgewater Monday, reuniting the journeyman backup with head coach Dan Campbell. The two worked together as members of the New Orleans Saints when Bridgewater was there from 2018 to 2019. Though Bridgewater isn’t expected to compete with quarterback Jared Goff for the starting job but could very well become the team’s backup ahead of veteran Nate Sudfeld. Now in his third year as Detroit’s head coach, Campbell is looking to ensure that the team continues moving forward after two steadily improving seasons. “We’re Year 3 and I think we’re i...

The Lion’s secondary had some encouraging news from a potentially devastating situation that could have been way worse. A source told ESPN’s Field Yates that C.J. Gardner Johnson‘s right knee showed no structural damage (coming back with a clean MRI) and is considered day-to-day after being carted off in practice due to a non-contact incident. In a light contact team drill, the defensive back was helped off by trainers to the cart after he struggled to put pressure on his right leg. CGJ’s new teammates were worried after he sustained a scary-looking injury, as the former Eagle was emotional on...

If you’ve ever wondered why teams take the entire 10 minutes while on the clock at the NFL Draft, it’s because the NFL so desires. Just ask the Detroit Lions. Last week’s spectacle saw the Jacksonville Jaguars select Travon Walker with the top choice, which gave the Lions 10 minutes to decide the second pick—they only needed about 60 seconds to take Michigan DE Aidan Hutchinson. “We turned the card in so fast the league got mad at us,” a Lions official reportedly told NBC Sports’ Peter King. So…yeah. That’s how the NFL rolls. Hutchinson was born in Michigan, was a Wolverine, and—get this—was a...

The Denver community was devastated when news of former Broncos receiver Demaryius Thomas‘ passing broke last week. When the Broncos and Detroit Lions took the field on Sunday, there was no question that both teams still had their minds on the tragedy that occurred. Tributes for Thomas were seen and heard across the NFL, but the Broncos wanted to honor the man who had made such a big impact on their city and team in a different way. On the first play of the game, the Broncos took the field with just 10 players. They took a delay of game, which Detroit declined. After taking a moment to honor T...

Calvin Johnson was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame this year after a historic nine-year career with the Detroit Lions (2007-2015). Yet, the former All-Pro wide receiver will not be celebrating his accomplishments with his former franchise because of an unresolved dispute over $1.6 million. Johnson abruptly retired in 2015 and was required to repay a $1.6 million signing bonus. The Lions, in an attempt to reimburse Johnson for those lost wages, offered him a three-year deal — $500,000 every year for making appearances and a $100,000 donation to his charity. However, this deal implie...

The Detroit Lions have made a surprise move and released Breshad Perriman just five months after signing the veteran wide receiver. Perriman signed a one-year, $2.5 million deal with Detroit in March and was expected to team with fellow newcomer Tyrell Williams to stabilize a completely overhauled Lions receiving corps. Perriman has dealt with a hip injury this summer, and Lions coach Dan Campbell indicated his roster spot could be in jeopardy last week when he told reporters “there just hasn’t been enough out there” from the six-year veteran. “I don’t want to beat a dead horse. I appreciate B...

Le’Veon Bell is an imposing force in the backfield of any offense, but at times his comments outside the lines of the football field are cause for question and concern. Bell has once again injected himself into the center of a media frenzy with his recent comment that he would never again play for his former coach Andy Reid. The comments follow Bell’s 2020 campaign in which the running back received nearly zero playing time during the playoffs. The comment is sure to negatively impact Bell’s stock with potential suitors for his talents, as he is still unsigned with approximately two months unt...
