Shane Zylstra practiced last week, but was sidelined again due to a knee injury.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-6\">Safety Thomas Harper remains in the league&#8217;s concussion protocoal. It remains unclear if the talented safety will be able to clear protocol in time to play against the Los Angeles Rams.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-7\">\u201cHarper\u2019s another one, we\u2019ll see. He\u2019s still in concussion protocol,&#8221; said Campbell. &#8220;No setbacks, but I don\u2019t know if we\u2019re going to have the runway to get him or not. I\u2019m just kind of as of right now, until we get further along here, I\u2019m just kind of, we\u2019ll see. But certainly, if we could get Harper back, that\u2019d be really good too.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"inline-text-8\"><strong>Team approach final month of 2025 season<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p id=\"inline-text-9\">Last season, Detroit was battling for a division title and the No. 1 overall seed in the NFC.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-10\">This year, the team is scratching and clawing for a spot in the postseason.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-11\">Dan Campbell was asked at his Monday media session with local reporters how the team approaches climbing back up, when they were the ones at the top of the NFC last year.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-12\">\u201cSame. It really is the same approach, nothing has changed just in that regard. You\u2019ve got to win. We had to win last year, that\u2019s the way it felt. You never felt like you could take a breath last year. You\u2019re constantly trying to, it was for something different, but yet you\u2019re trying to get the one seed,&#8221; said Campbell. &#8220;You\u2019re trying to get that home game, you\u2019re trying to get throughout the playoffs, all this stuff. And now it\u2019s no different, it\u2019s just we\u2019ve got to win. We need a win, we\u2019re trying to get back to that spot.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-13\">&#8220;So, all that matters is this one. Just like it was Dallas, man, we had to win that game. We had to find a way to win that game. And we did everything right, not everything, but relative to that game and everybody doing their job, we did what we needed to do to win it,&#8221; Campbell added. &#8220;Played complementary football. We\u2019ve got to do it again, on the road, versus the Rams. Very good team playing at a very high level. And we\u2019ve got to play better. We\u2019ve got to play better to beat this team that we\u2019re getting ready to face. And we will, we can do that, we can play better. We will play better.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"inline-text-14\"><\/h2>\n<figure><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lions announce corresponding move after signing cornerback.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":39407,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-39406","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-detroit-lions"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 -
