There's only one preseason game left before the regular season kicks off for the Detroit Lions.
The Lions will face the Indianapolis Colts on Saturday, Aug. 29, at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.
The
game kicks off with a start time of 1 p.m. ET and the channel is the Lions TV Network (WJBK-TV, or Channel 2 in Detroit, with streaming available on Fubo for Detroit-area viewers). If you live outside of the metro, check out Lions TV Network affiliates to find the channel.
Detroit is 1-1 in preseason action, most recently having beaten the Washington Commanders 17-13 at Ford Field in Detroit a week ago. Several spots on the 53-man roster are still up for grabs, including at backup quarterback and a handful of spots on defense.

The NFL's cutdown day deadline to set 53-man rosters is Sunday, Aug. 30, meaning this will be the final opportunity for Lions players to make impressions before cuts are made.
