Thorne and Reed Connection Highlights Spartans Win Against Terrapins
Fresh off their first loss of the season at Purdue, the Spartans recuperated in more ways than one. The focus coming in surrounded the defense and how they would fare against another pass heavy offense in Maryland. Opposing quarterback Taulia Tagovailoa finishes the game with a respectable stat line, but he was sacked four times and committed three intentional grounding fouls. The sophomore threw for 350 yards,
WSN Exclusive: Former Lions’ QB Charlie Batch talks career in Detroit, Steelers, and non-profit
Few people know about life in Michigan and Pennsylvania like Charlie Batch does. From childhood to adulthood, he spent most of his life in both states.

Detroit Lions safety Jalen Elliott walked into Wednesday's post-practice media session with a huge smile on his face. Now, a betting man would say it's due to recent events in his career. For their last two games, the Lions called Elliott up from the practice squad temporarily. And as of Monday, they've signed him to the 53-man active roster. While Elliott stood at the podium, ready to

Steelers’ Najee Harris primed for breakout game vs. Lions
Najee Harris is quickly becoming a problem for NFL defenses. And it's after an underwhelming start to his rookie season. Harris didn't have any rushing touchdowns in the seasons' first three weeks. Along with that, he averaged under 45 yards per game (41) on the ground. The Bills, Raiders, and Bengals, whom the Steelers faced to start the season, not only did a respectable job limiting his
Lions waive WR Tyrell Williams from IR with injury settlement
There's an old saying that goes like, "you don't know what you got until it's gone." Well, in the case of the Detroit Lions and Tyrell Williams, he was gone so long the Lions never saw what they had in him this season. And now, they never will. On Friday afternoon, the Lions waived Williams from the reserved/injured list. And they did it with an injury settlement.
Three reasons OBJ or D.Jax aren’t heading to the Lions
Among the many issues the Detroit Lions are facing this season, a glaring one is their depth at wide receiver. Compared to the other 31 teams in the NFL, it's pretty bad.

The Lions signed Breshad Perriman in March with expectations he'd be a second or third option at

For the first time in six years, the College Football Playoff rankings feature Michigan State in one of the top four spots.

On This Day 13 Years Ago: The Detroit Pistons made the worst trade in team history
The Detroit Pistons began the 2008-09 NBA season with a 2-0 record. They defeated the Pacers and Wizards in competitive matchups at the now-defunct Palace of Auburn Hills. Things appeared to be off to a much-needed good start for the team. After all, they parted ways with Flip Saunders in the offseason, paving the way for former Pistons' player, Michael Curry, to step into the head coach
Titans’ Mike Vrabel offers support, advice to Lions’ Dan Campbell
Dan Campbell is going through a tough stretch right now. In his first season as head coach of the Detroit Lions, his team is currently 0-8, staring down the barrel of the second winless season in team history.

Where do the Detroit Lions go from here?
Don't panic, don't panic. We're just getting started, Detroit Lions fans, so don't panic. After Sunday's 44-6 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, Lions fans may not want to get behind that French Montana lyric. There's a good reason for that, too. In over a decade's lowest attendance for a Lions game at Ford Field, the Detroit Lions took quite the tail-whipping. And as expected, their fanbase stormed to social media
