The Detroit Lions have named their six captains for the 2023 season, as voted on by the players themselves: quarterback Jared Goff, wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown, offensive tackle Penei Sewell, linebacker Alex Anzalone, edge defender Charles Harris and special teamer Jalen Reeves-Maybin.
Goff and Anzalone both return for their third consecutive year as team captains. Reeves-Maybin is also a return captain, re-assuming the special teams role he had in 2021 before spending last season with the Houston Texans.
Interestingly, Sewell becomes the team’s third current offensive lineman to have served as a team captain.
