Hard Knocks is coming to Detroit.

The upcoming season of the show will feature the Lions.

The Lions are excited about the opportunity to showcase the City of Detroit and the amazing culture we are building at the Lions.

This is the first time that Hard Knocks has produced a season about the Lions. The program follows an NFL team from the start of training camp until the final cuts in the regular season.

The first team to open the cameras during the regular season was the Indianapolis Colts. It is not clear if the trend will continue with a new franchise.

The Lions played hard for head coach Dan Campbell but fell short because of their talent deficit. The team is in the early stages of a multiyear rebuild that began with the trade of Matthew Stafford to the Los Angeles Rams.

The Detroit Lions have the second and 32nd picks in the first round of the upcoming NFL draft in Las Vegas, which means at least one high-profile talent could be making his debut for the cameras. The Lions are expected to seriously consider drafting a quarterback in the first round.

The two top quarterbacks in this class are Liberty's Malik Willis and Pittsburgh's Kenny Pickett.
