Kerby Joseph’s personality shined in this video of him randomly visiting a local Detroit firefighting station.
When it comes to offseason content, some of my favorite involves getting to know Detroit Lions players on a more personal level. We were afforded that possibility this week thanks to Lions safety Kerby Joseph’s official YouTube page.
On Tuesday, Joseph posted an 18-minute video of him essentially crashing a local Detroit fire department. In the video, he just walks up to the fire department in TechTown, Detroit, (specifically Engine 17, Ladder 7, Chief 5) hoping to meet some local firefighters and check out his first ever fire department.
The staff there was obviously pretty excited to see him, and were extremely welcoming to the Lions safety. They gave him a full tour—including where the firepole used to be—offered him up a pork chop, and even played a game of cornhole with him. Eventually, the gathering was interrupted when duty called and the firefighters had to go, but it was still a pretty darn cool impromptu encounter. Plus it was a creative way for Joseph to highlight some local heroes. Check out the entire video below.
The Lions may not open the season in primetime when they face off against the Green Bay Packers, but the entire “NFL Today” CBS crew will be on hand in Lambeau:
As always, Justin Rogers does a really good job with this film breakdown of Lions first-round pick Tyleik Williams.
Just an amazing Lions merchandise find from our own Morgan Cannon (who also found the video of Joseph at the firefighter station):
Lions legendary offensive lineman Lomas Brown offered his thoughts on Frank Ragnow’s retirement to the Detroit Free Press.
Speaking of Brown, the Lions are offering a unique ticket package in 2025. For away games (currently just at Chiefs, Eagles, and Commanders), you can buy an entire package that includes flights, hotel bookings, game tickets, all-inclusive tailgating, and a meet-and-greet with Lomas Brown. All information here.
