Lions Backup QB Crisis Deepens | Detroit Lions News

The Detroit Lions are scrambling for backup QB stability after Teddy Bridgewater’s retirement, with both Joshua Dobbs and rookie Luke Altmyer failing to impress. Dobbs looked shaky in preseason, turning the ball over, while Altmyer, thrust into action despite being a developmental project, took his lumps—literally, getting sacked often. With roster cuts looming, GM Arians is eyeing external options like Will Levis, Mason Rudolph, Aidan O’Connell, or Tanner McKee—all potential upgrades over the current duo. The Lions are giving Dobbs and Altmyer one last shot, but if they don’t deliver, expect a move soon to lock down that critical No. 2 spot.
