Detroit Lions tight end T.J. Hockenson looks to be on his way to becoming an elite tight end in the NFL. Hockenson is the only player in the NFL through two games with eight-plus receptions in both games of 2021. He is also the third tight end in league history to have eight catches and […]
D'Andre Swift To Be More Involved In Passing Game?
Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift already has 12 catches through two games, but he could get more involved through the air earlier in games.

Quintez Cephus - Week 3 Outlook for Fantasy Football
I love his name, and I loved his game Week 2 when he turned seven targets into four catches for 63 yards and a touchdown. Quintez Cephus has now scored in back-to-back weeks and appears to be the de facto No. 1 WR with injury-riddled Tyrell Williams sidelined with a concussion. With Detroit bound to […]
D'Andre Swift Questionable For Week 3
Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift (groin) was limited in practice all week and is questionable for Week 3 against the Baltimore Ravens. Wide receiver Kalif Raymond (thigh) is also questionable. Swift was questionable before Week 2 but played 63 percent of the offensive snaps and handled 12 touches for 78 total yards in the […]
Austin Siebert Placed On COVID List
Detroit Lions kicker Austin Seibert has been placed on the COVID list, putting his availability for the team's game against the Ravens in question.

Lions Defense Not Worth A Play In Week 3
The Detroit Lions defense will have a tough test Week 3 against the Ravens.

Jamaal Williams Remains In Backfield Timeshare
Detroit Lions running back Jamaal Williams should continue to split carries in the backfield in Week 3 against the Ravens.

Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift (groin) was limited in practice on Wednesday ahead of the Week 3 game against the Baltimore Ravens. The Lions were going through a walkthrough practice on Wednesday after just playing on Monday night in Week 2, so Swift's presence on the injury report shouldn't be too concerning. It's an […]
Lions Exploring Trade Options Involving Jamie Collins
The Detroit Lions are exploring trade options involving linebacker Jamie Collins, according to sources. The Lions have opted to go younger at the position, which means that Collins could be on his way out the door if Detroit finds a match with another club.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Tyrell Williams (concussion) has been ruled out for Week 3 against the Baltimore Ravens.

Amon-Ra St. Brown Not Worth The Gamble
Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown will go up against a Ravens secondary that has struggled through the first two weeks of the season. The rookie came into the regular season as a player to watch as the coaching staff consistently praised St. Brown for an excellent training camp. But that buzz has fizzled […]
Quintez Cephus' Value On The Rise
Detroit Lions wide receiver Quintez Cephus should get another chance to step up and make some plays Week 3 against the Ravens. Cephus' snap count saw quite an increase in Week 2 against the Packers with lead receiver Tyrell Williams (concussion) on the sidelines. The second-year receiver responded with four receptions for 63 yards with […]

Detroit Lions wide receiver Tyrell Williams (concussion) is not expected to play against the Ravens in Week 3.
