Lions Defense Not Worth Starting In Week 2

Lions Defense Not Worth Starting In Week 2

one year ago

The Detroit Lions defense posted an impressive outing in Week 1, holding Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs to 20 points and scoring a defensive touchdown. However, it's too early to say if Detroit has turned its defense around enough to enter the fantasy radar. The Seattle Seahawks were abysmal on offense last week, but Detroit's fantasy defense/special teams unit should not be trusted against Kenneth Walker, DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett, Jaxon Smith-Njigba, and company. If the Lions post another impressive performance defensively, its season-long outlook could change. For Week 2, keep them on the waiver wire.
