And on
Monday night, the PODcast crew offered their full training camp preview in audio/video form. We open the podcast talking about the latest news about Kerby Joseph, Brian Branch, and Tyler Conklin being placed on the PUP list. We discuss what that means—and more importantly, what it doesn’t mean. Then we go position-by-position to identify the biggest camp battles, the things we’re going to be keeping a close eye on, and the storylines and players you need to know before the Lions take the field on Wednesday.
You can listen to the entire show—nearly double the normal size—below with the Spotify embed, or you can search “Pride of Detroit” on your favorite podcasting platform to find the show elsewhere.
The show is also available to watch on our YouTube page and Twitch channel, with a bunch of extra goodies in between segments.
