The Detroit Lions could sign veteran cornerback Patrick Peterson to add depth for the playoffs, an analyst suggested. The post Lions Urged to Add All-Pro Cornerback for Playoff Push appeared first on Heavy Sports.

The Detroit Lions have been forced to navigate a laundry list of injuries, particularly on their defense, as they push toward the playoffs and try to secure the No. 1 seed in the NFC. As a result, they have been forced to make a handful of roster moves.

The Detroit Lions are preparing for the crucial last two weeks of the NFL regular season. With a win over the San Francisco 49ers and a Minnesota Vikings loss, the Lions can clinch the top seed in the NFC and home-field advantage throughout the postseason.

This isn't the same 49ers team the Lions lined up against 11 months ago, but Detroit is still treating it like a marquee game.

The 49ers are eliminated from the playoffs. But don't tell Kittle or Samuel that, with both studs having two of their best games of the year last week.
