The Detroit Lions selected Michigan defensive end Aidan Hutchinson with the No. 2 pick in the NFL draft, addressing a desperate need with a hometown star.

Back-to-back winning seasons were not enough for Brian Flores to keep his job as coach of the Miami Dolphins.

Aaron Rodgers threw two touchdown passes in the first half and sat out the second half with nothing at stake as the Detroit Lions beat the Green Bay Packers 37-30.

Aaron Rodgers knows the Green Bay Packers, who have clinched the NFC's No. 1 seed, can't improve their playoff positioning with a win over the lowly Detroit Lions. The reigning NFL MVP still wants to play Sunday at Ford Field, even though that would increase his chances of getting injured. “There’s risk every time you take the field," Rodgers said.

The Denver Broncos honored the late Demaryius Thomas with a 38-10 win over Detroit and tributes including a video montage and a moment of silence.

"Those names, for all those will never be forgotten and they're in our hearts and our prayers," Lions head coach Dan Campbell said.

Jared Goff threw an 11-yard touchdown pass to Amon-Ra St. Brown as time expired, lifting the previously winless Detroit Lions to a 29-27 win over the Minnesota Vikings.

Cairo Santos made a 28-yard game-ending field goal to give the Chicago Bears a 16-14 win over the Detroit Lions on Thursday.

The Pittsburgh Steelers and Detroit Lions slogged their way to a 16-16 tie in an ugly nearly four-hour marathon that produced more comedy than highlights.

The Detroit Lions have a lot of long-suffering fans and they're starting to show their displeasure by simply not showing up for games to watch the NFL's only winless team at Ford Field. “When you don’t win a game and you’re 0-8 and you’ve lost at home, I’m not going to be upset with that," Campbell said Monday. The Lions announced a crowd of 47,192 on Sunday, when they were thoroughly dominated by the Philadelphia Eagles 44-6.

For eight weeks, Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell has been consistent about one thing. “I got outcoached today; I didn't help these guys at all,” he said after Sunday's 44-6 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. “The coaches are giving us a great game plan, but they can only do so much,” safety Tracy Walker said.

Joe Burrow tied a career high with three touchdown passes, helping the Cincinnati Bengals rout the Detroit Lions 34-11 Sunday.

(AP Photo/Mike Roemer) (Mike Roemer)GREEN BAY, Wis. — (AP) — The Detroit Lions’ new coach and quarterback are off to a start that resembles the team's previous regimes. On Monday night, they led at halftime but fell apart the rest of the way and lost 35-17 to the Green Bay Packers. But he struggled the rest of the way as the Lions were outscored 21-0 over the final two periods. Green Bay scored touchdowns on two of its first three series, but its fourth possession didn’t come until only 3 seconds remained in the first half. With Detroit trailing 21-17 and facing fourth-and-1 from the Green Bay 25, the Lions passed up the field-goal attempt.

The Detroit Lions made Bosa get back to work. “I was expecting to be done.”That was not an unrealistic expectation when San Francisco led 38-10 early in the fourth. Garoppolo, who helped San Francisco win the 2019 NFC championship, is 23-8 in the regular season since being acquired from New England.

Dre Greenlaw returned an interception for a touchdown to help the San Francisco 49ers score 17 points over two-plus minutes late in the first half and they held on for a 41-33 win over the Detroit Lions.

The Kansas City Chiefs started slowly on Sunday but did more of what they’ve done quite a bit over the past few years — win.

Here's a look at the top stories making headlines on the "CBS Evening News with Norah O'Donnell."

The team believes the palaeoscolecid lived on ocean floors.

The Detroit Lions made a lot of changes in the offseason by bringing in a new general manager, coach and quarterback. The franchise with one playoff victory since winning the NFL title in 1957 is coming off three straight double-digit loss seasons. Detroit might be doomed with at least 10 losses again.

Fromm, Buffalo’s fifth-round pick in 2020, spent all of last year as the team's COVID-19 emergency quarterback. Fromm entered in the fourth quarter and finished 8 of 13 for 65 yards. The passes set up Bullock's 28-yard, go-ahead field goal with 1:38 left, which proved to be too much time on the clock to hold on for the win.

Detroit players joined a coordinated effort by the NFLPA to say they were going to stay away from the team's voluntary offseason program before most of them showed up for practices. Conversations with first-year coach Dan Campbell found enough middle ground for some players to think twice about skipping. “I think teams have done a good job of working it out between coaches and players,” agent Ron Slavin said. “All I can say is this is the first step,” Campbell said last month as offseason practices were starting. Dallas tight end Dalton Schultz, the team's player representative, said at least 20 veterans on his team have contracts with compensation tied to offseason work with the Cowboys.

NFL minicamps are mostly proceeding as planned as teams and their players discuss potential fundamental changes to the offseason structure.

The Detroit Lions hired Dan Campbell as their coach this offseason, but it appears they had their eyes on another target first.

Dan Campbell kicked off his tenure as Detroit Lions coach with some questionable decisions, including not having a quarterback during rookie minicamp.

They'll begin finding out this week when the 32 team owners hold virtual meetings Tuesday and Wednesday. Two items top the agenda: increasing the regular season to 17 games and decreasing preseason games to three per team. Both are nearly certain to be approved after a pandemic-stressed season that severely cut into the league's revenue stream. The media partners who just spent about $10 billion annually for NFL rights fees will get more content that counts, and fewer exhibition games. Ad“There will be automatic changes to the offseason and in-season workout schedules as a result,” said George Atallah, the NFL Players Association spokesman.

– Tyreek Hill was thrilled to hear that his first wide receivers coach, David Culley, was going to be an NFL head coach. After interviewing for six openings, Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy ultimately was passed over during the annual coaching carousel. That became official when the Houston Texans hired Culley, the long-time Andy Reid assistant who had been the assistant head coach in Baltimore. “I mean, I'm not a GM or anything but I will say, Coach Bieniemy has helped me a lot,” Hill said Thursday, after the Chiefs finished their first real practice for the Super Bowl. He wants to be a head coach.
