The Detroit Lions 53-man roster looks a little different than how it did at the beginning of the season. Currently, only 41 players from that original list remain on the team, which can be attributed to injuries, poor play, trades, and mid-season free agent signings.

A depleted roster and losses in key match-ups have all but ended Detroit’s chances at a playoff run this season. With only five games left this season, it’s time that the young players on the team get a chance to show what they can do.

Some of the rookies on this team have already made names for themselves this season.
