Star safety Brian Branch has been a key contributor for the Detroit Lions this 2025 season, tallying 52 tackles, five tackles for loss, five passes defended, three quarterback hits, two and a half sacks and one forced fumble in nine games played.
The NFL routinely sends out punishments for actions that are deemed unsportsmanlike conduct, and they just did it with Williams. On Saturday, the NFL announced that they’re fining him $14,491 for “use of prop” and “unsportsmanlike conduct.” Just be happy he isn’t being suspended, which really was never a possibility.
It's still almost a week before Thanksgiving, but it's never too early to talk NFL Draft. The Detroit Lions are certainly expected to be in the market for some offensive line help in the coming offseason, and the 2026 NFL Draft class has quite a bit to offer throughout the seven rounds.
The Detroit Lions likely need five more wins for a playoff berth. They have seven games left. That's not a big ask, but it's not easy, either.
Reed and Dorsey were activated from injured reserve and removed from the injury report, meaning both are expected to play.
The Detroit Lions are back home for a nice three-game home stretch that starts by taking on the New York Giants. At this point, every game is starting to feel like a must-win as we approach the playoffs.
The struggling New York Giants (2-9) will take the field this weekend WITHOUT Jaxson Dart Sunday in Motown against Jared Goff and the Detroit Lions (6-4). Last week's loss in Philly to the Eagles dropped the Lions to eighth place overall in the NFC and 1/2 game out of the playoffs.
The Detroit Lions may have lost their Week 11 matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles, but their defense gave them plenty of opportunities to try and get the road victory. One of the highlights from the game was their ability to stop the vaunted “tush push” that has frequently been the undoing for teams opposing the Eagles.
