The NFL and Hall of Fame released it’s 2010’s All-Decade team this week with two former Detroit Lions making the cut. Two years post the 0-16 2008 season and a decade in the 2000s where the Lions went 42-118, the 2010s was a decade filled with mediocrity for the Lions going 72-87-1.
While two out of a possible 52 players might surprise you at first, the Lions have had their fair share of elite talent throughout the 2010s … depth was always the issue. The two elite players honored by the NFL Monday were wide receiver Calvin Johnson and defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh.
