The Detroit Lions play in the NFC North and compete in the NFC conference. This page tracks the full fantasy-relevant roster for the 2026 NFL season, ranked by 2025 per-game production and refreshed daily from live NFL stats. If a player is on the active roster and inside the top tier at their position, you will find them here.
Across the four main fantasy positions, we currently rank 6 Detroit Lions players inside the 2026 top tiers. 1 quarterback, 2 running backs, 2 wide receivers, 1 tight end. Jahmyr Gibbs leads the group with 19.3 fantasy points per game in 2025 and is the most likely anchor of any Detroit Lions-heavy fantasy stack.
The Detroit Lions are on bye in Week 5, which means every fantasy manager rostering one of their players needs bench depth or a waiver-wire plan locked in for that week.
DraftCall's AI matchup engine lets you pit any Detroit Lions player against any other NFL starter in seconds, factoring in matchup, recent form, and scoring format. Use this page as your starting point for weekly start or sit decisions involving the Lions.
