One NFL analysts believes Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell is entering the 2026 season on the hot seat.
Now before I go nuclear on this podcast clip, a little context.
This is from Monday’s episode of “The Rich Eisen Show,” and it was in the middle of a segment called Overreaction Monday. Of course, the purpose of this segment is to propose some “out there” opinions that are unpopular, but believable
This particular clip is not from Eisen himself, but his co-host and senior producer of the show, Chris Brockman. He offered a countdown of the five coaches entering the...

The NFL is already starting to intentionally leak some of the biggest games on the 2026 schedule, and the Detroit Lions have made the early list. On Monday, Amazon Prime announced that the Buffalo Bills will host the Lions in the Week 2 edition of “Thursday Night Football.” That will also be the debut of Buffalo’s new stadium.
With the Lions already known to have a game in Munich, Germany and their annual Thanksgiving Day game, Detroit is already up to three nationally televised games for the 2026 season, without even knowing the specifics of anything other than one game...

The Detroit Lions will have at least one primetime game on their 2026 NFL schedule.
The NFL announced on Monday that the Lions will face off against the Buffalo Bills in Week 2 for a “Thursday Night Football” matchup.
There are a couple of notable things about this matchup for the Lions and Bills.
For one, it will be the debut of the Bills’ new stadium, according to Prime Video. With the Bills playing on the road in Week 1, Highmark Stadium will make its regular season NFL debut in primetime on the national stage. That will make for a...

The Detroit Lions traded up in the second-round of the 2026 NFL Draft to select Michigan edge defender Derrick Moore. They ended up moving six spots—from 50 to 44—and spending Pick 128 (their second fourth-round pick) to get there. It was a modest trade up of very fair value.
But on Monday, the New York Giants released their behind-the-scenes draft video, and it captured a moment in which the Lions appeared to attempt a significantly more costly trade up in the second round.
The Giants were getting ready to be on the clock with the 37th overall pick. Then, we...

On Monday, the Detroit Lions announced a slew of jersey numbers for the 2026 season. This includes jersey numbers for all of their 2026 free agent signings, as well as nine players who opted to change their numbers from last season. Rookie jersey numbers have still not yet been revealed for the Lions’ 2026 draft class, as the rookie minicamp was canceled by the team this year.
Here’s a look at the jersey numbers that were revealed on Monday:

Soon, we’ll know the entirety of the Detroit Lions’ 2026 schedule, but as with most big events in the NFL, they’ll want to draw as much attention as possible and will slowly roll out information throughout the week. This article will provide readers with a one-stop place for all the rumors, leaks, and released information Lions’ fans will want to know.
The first significant broadcast domino to fall will be the full international slate of 2026 NFL games, on Wednesday, May 13, at 9 a.m. ET on NFL Network’s “Good Morning Football”. Fortunately for Detroit fans, [the Lions’ international game...

The 2026 NFL schedule will be fully released on Thursday, May 14, but some leaks are already starting to come through. The first regarding the Detroit Lions is in regards to their international game. The NFL has already announced that the Lions will be the host for the Germany game in Munich, but now we have an official date of the game.
Lachlan Murdoch, the CEO of the FOX corporation, spilled the beans during a conference call on Monday, while announcing that the game will be broadcast as a part one of a tripleheader. **The official date of the Lions’...

The 2026 NFL Draft may be a couple weeks old at this point, but the Detroit Lions aren’t likely done adding players to their roster. In fact, they still have a few roster spots open before Organized Team Activities and minicamp begin at the end of the month. Lions general manager Brad Holmes even said after the draft that he couldn’t wait to get back to work on improving the roster.
“I’m actually excited about getting going next week and just looking at—is there any guys that are still out there?” Holmes told Dan Miller. “There might be some guys...

As we approach the middle of May, predicting which players will or will not make the Detroit Lions’ initial roster is a lofty task. However, something that is inevitable is a player or two capturing the hearts of fans over the course of training camp.
The Lions are no strangers to training camp darlings. Some of them, such as Tom Kennedy, have managed to stick around for numerous seasons. Inversely, many of them—Kalil Pimpleton or Ian Kennelly, to name a few—fail to make the team and wind up bouncing around the NFL or other professional leagues. The path to an...

Happy Mother’s Day to everyone out there!
For today’s Question of the Day, I wanted to honor the mothers out there for their support in a lot of our biggest passions out there.
Women in sports is no longer just a niche subculture. The WNBA has now produced several superstars, the amount of college women athletes is steadily on the rise, and television ratings for women’s sports is skyrocketing. This was even a big week locally in Detroit for women’s sports, as the city is getting a team in the Professional Women’s Hockey League.
So today’s Question of the Day...

The 2026 NFL schedule release is less than a week away. On Thursday, May 14, the NFL will release the 17-game schedule for all teams, which is really the final offseason event before the countdown to training camp begins (aside from OTAs and minicamp).
For the Detroit Lions, one of the more fascinating parts of the schedule release is identifying where their bye week. For a team that has had as many injuries as they’ve suffered over the past few seasons, the timing of the bye week could be crucial for Detroit to get to full health at the most...

The NFL announced on Friday that the 2026 season’s schedule release will happen next week: Thursday, May 14.
Typically, the NFL rolls out the schedule release in parts, with some primetime and international games leaked days before the official release on Thursday. That will be of particular interest to Detroit Lions fans, as Detroit will host one of the international games being held in Munich, Germany this year. It will also be interesting to see how the NFL treats the Lions in regards to primetime games. Last year, the Lions played in five primetime games, down from six in the...
