The regular season for the Detroit Lions is a mere three weeks away. Before you know it, they will be hosting the Philadelphia Eagles for the Week 1 opener and Year 2 of the Dan Campbell era will officially be upon us.
But before we get there, the Lions have plenty of work to do. With the roster currently at 85 players, Detroit will use the next two preseason games to evaluate the roster bubble players in order to get down to 53 players by August 30—just 10 days away.
That begins on Saturday afternoon as the Lions take on the Indianapolis Colts in the second of three preseason games on the docket.
