With training camp quickly approaching, the Detroit Lions still face uncertainty regarding veteran linebacker Alex Anzalone’s future. Entering the final year of his current deal, Anzalone made waves during the offseason by suggesting on social media that he was seeking a contract extension. His absence from voluntary workouts further fueled speculation.
Complicating matters is the fact that the Lions opted not to hold a mandatory minicamp, leaving fans and analysts in the dark about whether Anzalone plans to report for camp without a new deal in place. If contract talks stall and he sits out, it may signal the end of his time in Detroit after the 2024 season—particularly since young talents like Jack Campbell and Derrick Barnes are already in the mix.
