Detroit Lions Podcast Breaking News

Couple of quickies – Taylor Decker missed practice today with a finger injury, and D’Andre Swift has rumors swirling about a pretty serious crime. Other than that everything is going great, thank you for asking. Good time to make one of those Resurrection cocktails Chris was talking about…

We’re also going to go over 6 key benchmarks for the Lions 2021 season – ones that will indicate whether we are seeing a successful campaign, or (gulp) something else.

Don’t forget, Friday marks the day that WWJ-Radio airtime powerhouse, Tony Ortiz returns to the show with Chris for our weekly Game Preview show. If you remember from last year, it was a riot. Great stuff, and some fun insider stories.
