Detroit Lions Bubble Watch Week 5: Big shifts in defense camp battles

The Detroit Lions' defense took a bit of a beating in the first half of Saturday’s game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Although it was a lot of the Lions’ second-team defense going against the first-team Pittsburgh offense, it certainly highlighted some issues with the roster. More importantly, it likely exposed certain players who were deemed as “second-team” players, who are likely not worthy of that designation at all.

So it should come as no surprise that in this week’s Bubble Watch, we had some drastic changes on the defensive side of the ball. One player went from a unanimous OUT to a unanimous IN.
