I'm so excited to see what Coach Dan Campbell and the Detroit Lions accomplish this year as they come of the 2022 season winning 8 out of their last 10 games.

One big part of any winning team is leadership, I don't have a ton of confidence in the Ford Family, but I do believe in Coach Campbell and the six players that have been named as team captains for the 2023 season.

Detroit Lions Announce Six Captains For The 2023 Season

Meet your six captains for the Detroit Lions 2023 as voted on by the players.

QB Jared Goff

WR Amon-Ra St. Brown

OL Penei Sewell

LB Alex Anzalone

DL Charles Harris

LB Jalen Reeves-Maybin

I was a bit surprised that Aiden Hutchenson wasn't one of this year's captains after his rookie season last year with the Detroit Lions.

Hutchenson finished the 2022 season with 9.5 sacks and 15 quarterback hits and 52 total tackles, including nine for loss.

He leads all NFL rookies in sacks (4.5), pressures (14) and quarterback hits (9) at the midpoint of the season

He was also named the Pepsi Zero Sugar Rookie of the Year.

I'm really excited for this team to shine in the spotlight.

The Lions will get their first chance to do so against Patrick Mahomes and The Kansas City Chiefs on Thursday Night Football.

Being a captain definitely has its benefits, Check out Detroit Lions Captian and QB Jared Goff's $10.5M Mansion.
