Locked On Lions - Daily Podcast On The Detroit Lions

Detroit Lions fans breathe a sigh of relief as David Montgomery signals his intent to remain with the team, dispelling rumors of a possible departure. Is the Lions’ star running back poised for a bounce back year alongside dynamic teammate Jahmyr Gibbs? Matt Dery hosts a fast-paced discussion on Montgomery’s recent media appearances, the impact of Drew Petzing’s arrival as offensive coordinator, and what it means for the Lions’ run game after a frustrating season.
 
Andrew Siciliano joins to offer insider perspectives on the NFC’s playoff landscape, Jared Goff’s critics, and Detroit’s ongoing hunt for a Super Bowl breakthrough. Hot topics include the Lions’ offensive depth with Amon-Ra St. Brown and Sam LaPorta, hurdles to regaining the NFC North crown, and future challenges from divisional rivals like the Vikings. Can Dan Campbell’s squad recapture postseason magic, or will roster questions linger into 2026? #firstlisten

Contract shake-ups rock Detroit as the Detroit Lions consider the future of Levi Onwuzurike, Josh Paschal, and standout free agent Roy Lopez—who deserves another shot in the trenches? Matt Dery spotlights the Lions’ defensive line decisions, weighs in on Pro Football Focus grades, and questions whether returning familiar faces like Marcus Davenport is the answer or if Detroit must prioritize fresh talent to stay tough up front.

Detroit Lions shake up their defensive line as Levi Onwuzurike and Josh Paschal return with "tolled" contracts, raising questions about future roster decisions and injury risk. Are these moves a smart play by Brad Holmes and Dan Campbell, or do the Lions need fresh talent to boost their pass rush? Host Matt Dery critiques the defensive line’s struggles and evaluates contract technicalities, while spotlighting productive contributors like Al-Quadin Muhammad and Roy Lopez.
 
Jared Goff praises new offensive coordinator Drew Petzing, calling the hire a “home run” and sharing insights into his own involvement in the decision-making process. Brett Whitefield of Fantasy Points joins to break down Petzing’s exotic run schemes and their potential impact on Detroit’s offensive identity. Plus, listener Matt Lemmer makes the case for a Western Michigan standout as a draft prospect. Can Detroit’s new staff and strategic changes power a deeper playoff run next season? #firstlisten
