Key Acquisitions and Stability

Despite losing left guard Jonah Jackson in free agency, the Lions bolstered their lineup by acquiring veteran right guard Kevin Zeitler, who ranked 15th in PFF grade among guards in 2023. Graham Glasgow also returns for another season, providing stability after a solid 2023 performance.

Offensive line coach Hank Fraley commented on the offseason, emphasizing the importance of training camp for unit cohesion. “We’ll really get it when training camp comes up front, when the pads go on. We like to joke around this is like being in underwear for us up front, D-line, and O-line, it’s tough. That’s when we’re gonna join, get it,” Fraley said. He further expressed the significance of Kevin Zeitler’s adaptation to the team’s communication style.
