Live updates: Detroit Lions at Carolina Panthers, NFL preseason

The Lions wrap up the preseason against the Panthers in Carolina on Friday night.

The matchup likely won't include many of the Lions' prominent players. Detroit's two previous preseason games were mostly opportunities for rookies to gather more experience and settling some of the remaining roster battles from training camp.

Last week's 25-7 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars featured an anemic performance from the offense. Quarterback Teddy Bridgewater was the starter to open the game and was eventually replaced by Nate Sudfeld late in the second quarter. Both quarterbacks put up subpar performances. Bridgewater completed five passes for a grand total of 34 yards, while Sudfeld completed nine passes for 80 yards.
