The Detroit Lions don't play this week, and own a 3-2 record during their Week 6 bye.
Detroit will return to action with a home date in Week 7 against NFC North rival Green Bay from Ford Field. That starts a stretch of 12 straight games for the Lions to close the 2026 regular season.
As the Lions enjoy their bye week, Detroit owns the NFL's No. 6 total offense (393.8 yards per game) and is tied with Buffalo for the NFL's top scoring offense (32.8 points per game). Quarterback Jared Goff has thrown for 1,485 yards and 12 touchdowns with no interceptions.
Running back Jahmyr Gibbs is off to another terrific start, running for 504 yards and seven touchdowns through five games. Gibbs has added 243 receiving yards and two touchdown catches.
But, the Lions are still trying to shore up a leaky secondary that is surrendering a league-high 297.4 passing yards per game. Detroit also ranks last in the NFL in total defense (404.4 yards per game) and 29th in scoring defense (29.6 points per game).
The Lions did put together their best defensive performance and all-around performance in Week 5 ahead of their bye. Detroit rolled past Arizona, 45-21, to head into its off week. Detroit leads the NFL in sacks with 20, giving the Lions something to feel good about defensively.
As Lions fans enjoy a Sunday to just kick back and watch a full slate of football, here's Detroit's remaining 2026 schedule:
