According to Colton Pouncey of The Athletic, Detroit Lions general manager Brad Holmes will hold his end-of-season press conference on Thursday. While the exact time has not yet been announced, Lions fans. and the media are already circling the date.
Holmes has been noticeably quiet for much of the season, and this will be his first extended public availability in quite a while. With Detroit finishing a frustrating and uneven 2025 campaign, there’s no shortage of questions waiting for him, especially regarding the team’s lack of impactful offseason additions and why more wasn’t done to bolster the roster.
Expect Holmes to be pressed on:
- The organization’s approach to free agency and roster depth
- Missed opportunities to reinforce key positions
- The plan moving forward into the 2026 offseason
The Lions front office has emphasized long-term roster building since Holmes’ arrival, but after a season filled with injuries, inconsistency, and regression in key areas, many want to know whether lessons were learned — and whether the strategy will change.
We’ll share key quotes and takeaways once Holmes steps to the podium Thursday.
