The Detroit Lions have been good defensively in 2025, and Alex Anzalone is very encouraged by their trajectory.
Defensively, the Detroit Lions don't always get the headlines like their offense, but the fact is, the group has been impressive early in the 2025 season.
This year, the Lions haven't had to endure a string of multiple injuries at every level like they did in 2024. There's been ailments, but they've mostly been confined to the secondary. That, along with the emergence of Kelvin Sheppard, has helped the Lions thrive defensively.
