Show Notes
The Detroit Lions have released offensive tackle Taylor Decker, ending a tumultuous offseason for the injury-plagued lineman. Despite playing through a nagging shoulder injury last season, Decker missed four games due to the issue and one more for illness. The Lions requested Decker rework his contract for 2026, seeking fewer guarantees and more performance incentives due to concerns about his recovery timeline. Deckers quick comeback announcement was met with optimism, but his release indicates the teams uncertainty about his ability to handle a full season. Deckers injury history, including multiple surgeries last year, will be a factor for potential suitors in free agency.
