Lions Roster Battle Countdown | Detroit Lions News

The Detroit Lions face a razor-thin deadline as they prepare for their final preseason game against the Colts, with roster cuts looming just 12 hours after kickoff. Quarterback Luke Altmyer must seize his chance to prove he’s the backup QB of choice over Joshua Dobbs, while running back Trayveon Williams could earn a spot—or at least a waiver claim—by showcasing his versatility, especially on special teams. Wide receiver Dominic Lovett, a seventh-round rookie, needs a breakout moment to compete for one of the last receiver spots against veteran Greg Dortch. And defensive end Anthony Lucas, fighting for a roster spot with fellow UDFA Eric ONeill, has a golden opportunity to impress in Payton Turner’s absence. This game isn’t just about stats—it’s about survival. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
