Here are five Lions who may not return to the team in 2026.

The Lions went from going 27-7 as repeat NFC North champions the previous two seasons to the brink of playoff elimination at 8-7 in 2025. Here's breaking down Detroit's shocking breakdown.

Watch "Bish & Brown" on the Detroit Lions Podcast as they break down the Steelers loss and preview Christmas Day vs. the Vikings.

The Lions dropped back-to-back losses for the first time since 2022, and are all but eliminated from the playoff picture. As a result, the Lions’ record sits at 8-7, and they enter the final two weeks of the regular season playing for pride and looking to rediscover a sense of identity.

Of note, center Graham Glasgow (knee) was upgraded from limited to full participation in the estimated practice report for the walkthrough.

It also narrowed Detroit's postseason path to just about the narrowest one possible. The Packers (9-5-1) remained 1.5 games up on the Lions with two games to go for both teams, meaning the Lions' only path to the playoffs is to win both of their next two games AND have the Packers lose both of their next two games.

The 2025 Pro Bowl rosters have been set, and the Detroit Lions once again have a pretty strong presence. Here's who made it from the Lions, the first timers, and the guys who got snubbed. Jahmyr Gibbs: No shocker here.
