While I absolutely loved every second of “Hard Knocks” this season, I felt one of a few missed opportunities from the NFL Films crew was covering the Detroit Lions’ offensive line. Not only is that offensive line—which features three first-round picks—a microcosm of the team’s entire identity, but it also features some of the most interesting, charismatic players on the entire team.
Yet, outside of an extremely brief fishing trip with Frank Ragnow and a clip about him loving Applebee’s that never made it onto the show, the group barely got featured at all. Where was Penei Sewell, who regularly screams his head off in practice?
