Lions

Lions HC Dan Campbell said the team is struggling to find its identity after its 41-31 loss to the Bills and is determined to avoid another loss in its upcoming matchup with the Jets.

“We don’t even know what we are yet, entirely. We don’t know what we are,” Campbell said, via Pro Football Talk. “The 2026 Detroit Lions’ offense, defense, special teams, what do we really hang our hat on? We’ve got an idea on some of our go-to guys, our heavy hitters, but what do we really do well with those guys? And we won’t, and I hate saying it, we’re not gonna know until probably around the bye [Week 6]. Until we get a good four or five games, and you really start to figure out, this is what we can do and where we can really grow.”

“As bad as it was, it’s not as bad as it appears to be,” Campbell added. “And you clean a couple things up, you get guys right, you put guys in the right positions, one guy does what he’s supposed to do, that leads to trust the other guy, now we can start cutting it loose and we get our confidence back, and the offense starts playing better, we start converting more, now all of a sudden you begin to get a little bit better, the floor begins to rise on where you’re at. I’m not discouraged.”

• Lions HC Dan Campbell gave an update on OT Blake Miller‘s status with a knee injury: “I think there’s a good chance had it been Sunday (last week) he would’ve played. I feel pretty good that he’s trending the right way to be in there (this week).” (Will Burchfield)
• Campbell also mentioned OL Christian Mahogany will practice tomorrow, and they will see where he’s at. (Burchfield)
