Two Detroit Lions Lead Their Respective Positions in Pro Bowl Voting

In this story:
The first wave of Pro Bowl voting results has been released, and a pair of Detroit Lions lead their respective positions.
Right tackle Penei Sewell and linebacker Jack Campbell have garnered a significant amout of early votes for the 2026 Pro Bowl.
Detroit's talented linebacker has emerged as one of the top players at his position. He recorded nine tackles in a disappointing loss to the Green Bay Packers.
Campbell recorded nine tackles (five solo) in Detroit's 31-24 loss to the Packers on Thanksgiving at Ford Field.
Sewell is rated among the top offensive tackles and is consistently opening holes for Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery.
The NFL made the decision to move the Pro Bowl games to Super Bowl LX Week in San Francisco.
"Building on our strong partnerships with the Bay Area Host Committee and ESPN, we're thrilled to make the 2026 Pro Bowl Games presented by Verizon part of Super Bowl week, our biggest platform of the year, elevating flag football and our best players in a way that's never been done before," Peter O'Reilly, NFL Executive Vice President of Events, International and Club Business said. "The Pro Bowl Games will not only be an exciting showcase of our best talent, but also a taste of the elite athleticism and dynamic action we can expect to see on the Olympic stage."
Improving run game
Offensive coordinator John Morton was asked by local reporters if opposing defenses are gaining any sort of advantage over Detroit's rushing attack.
“No, that’s just the style. I mean, depending on the situation, too. If it’s second-and-short, third-and-short, they’re going to be coming downhill. We do a really good job with our self-scout," said Morton. "But the bottom line is it’s the execution. Yeah, they can fire all they want, and we have other plays – we’re watching the game. We’re looking at what they’re doing. But, if we don’t do the proper technique, the proper block, that isn’t going to work. That’s what it boils down to."
Detroit's first-year coordinator is not terribly concerned with the scheme, and believes the offense will get back on track, sooner rather than later.
