On Monday Night Football, the Detroit Lions will host the New York Jets in what will be each team's first game of the 2018 season.
After an abysmal preseason that has many local writers and fans panicking already, you can bet the Lions will be ready to come out and prove that the regular season is all that matters.
Just in case they will not be fired up enough, the Lions will have a local celebrity in the house to help out. According to the team, Eminem will join the Lions captains for the coin toss.
