Lions are now the 6th youngest team

Gee. Most of us are older than we’ve ever been. Not the Lions!

Hopefully younger means way less time on injured reserve.

At 26.7, OTC has us as the 7th oldest team. Mike Payton gets so much wrong, I’m going to guess he ■■■■■■ this up too.

This team can’t help but get older every day., Brad sucks as GM.

This list has them at 13th :man_shrugging:

So basically we’re somewhere between the oldest, and youngest team in the league. Got it.

6th youngest, 7th oldest…split the difference and call it …pretty average.

The difference in numbers is minimal.

Between first and last is 18 months. I don’t know that this metric is meaningful in any way, especially when a vet backup QB or kicker in his late 30s can skew the number so much.

The better metric to look at would be the starting lineup average age
That is what you would want to see
Then look at the backups, the backups should have some solid vets that bump the average age up

Good point like when we had a 40 year old long snapper in Mule. That does skew the numbers big time
