The 2025 NFL preseason is coming to a merciful end for the Detroit Lions on Saturday afternoon. Detroit was one of two teams who saw their preseason extended from three games to four. On one hand, it was an opportunity for Detroit’s new coordinators to get used to the game-day operation and an extra chance for developmental players to get live game reps. On the other hand, it’s likely increased the team’s chances of injury.
Regardless, it all comes to an end at Ford Field on Saturday with a bout against the Houston Texans. While neither team is expected to play starters, the game will be critical for players fighting for a roster spot.
