INDIANAPOLIS, IN - NOVEMBER 24: Detroit Lions Kicker Michael Badgley (17) is tackled by Indianapolis Colts Safety Julian Blackmon (32) during the NFL football game between the Detroit Lions and the Indianapolis Colts on November 24, 2024, at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana.

While it's not the most exciting game to watch from a casual fan standpoint, don't make the mistake of calling this a meaningless game." For a few dozen players on each side of the ball, Saturday's performance could be the difference between continuing to play the game they love and finding a new career pathway. While that may sound dramatic, it's the reality of the situation. Put out good film during the game, and there will be a team that finds it, even if it's not Detroit. Struggle to elevate your game during the high stakes, and football may not be in your future.
While the majority of Detroit's 53-man roster has likely already been decided, the last few spots will be up for grabs in Indy. So if you want to check it out, adjust your own 53-man roster projections, and just enjoy some football, join our live chat in the comment section below.
