while the official injury report has not released yet the Detroit Lions are heading into that week one match up relatively healthy we've got DJ reer who may or may not play week one coach said earlier this week that his Target date was week two that's what we were looking at the whole time against Tampa Bay I did see some footage of him out there practicing it appears he was practicing today he looks big and strong man so that clown suit might be loading but we also have a Fu mopan Wu who is dealing with an achill injury that is taking more a little more time to heal and the Detroit Lions are not going to rush anybody back they're going to take everything slow we've seen that before but this guy right here we were worried about him I took him in my fantasy league I can't remember what round I think it was one or two and that is the reach himself 12th overall pick in the 2023 NFL draft jir Gibbs jir Gibbs appears that he is going to be ready to go come week one this is coming from Eric woodyard's Twitter says lions running back jir Gibbs tells ESPN that he's ready to go for week one said he feels about 80 I'm sorry 98 to 100% after tweaking his hamstring during Camp while running routes I'm good just had a little tweak he said Gib said he's more confident overall entering year two and that is fantastic that it was just a little tweak we kind of knew that I remember when he went out it seems like about a month ago a month ago he went out and we were ready to hear some words about it took took them about a day or two and we found out that it was a hamstring injury at that moment we knew that coach is he's not he's done he's done practicing he's done all of that stuff hamstrings are one of them injuries that you cannot worsen like it has to be better we've seen Michael badley has a complete hamstring tear he's out for the season Jameson Williams had a hamstring that he had to deal with last year kept him out I want to say about four or five games or so just Justin Jefferson was put on IR last year due to a hamstring so that's one of them things that you have to be very very cautious about when you talk about a timetable coming back now this guy man I love jir Gibbs I made a video about him before the NFL draft how I wouldn't be mad I really thought bjan might be the pick but when I found out we were taking jir Gibbs I was not mad at all this kid is going to be special and he's already shown that and I am looking forward to him doing something he didn't quite get a chance to do last year here I'll tell you what that is a little bit later but let's kind of Reminisce a little bit on his stats played in 15 games remember he was hurt missed two games had 182 carries for 945 yards with an average of 5.2 but look at these touchdowns man look at these touchdowns 30 he had 10 touchdowns now this right here this is is small compared to what I think he's going to do this year I think he's going to break a a run of 60 plus yards and make a house call and then receiving had 52 receptions 71 targets 316 yards just one touchdown there now Dan Campbell said that they're trying to put him in the passing game more and that he has to you know he he got to catch the football right because he had he had eight drops off those 71 targets so that's what is that that's over 10% that's about 11 12% somewhere around there so that's that's something you can't have in the National Football League for reference Amed R Brown had over twice as many targets and he had eight drops total so Jamir is going to have to catch the football but I don't have I don't see any problem with that happening you know that I'm sure he's going with that confidence I'm sure he's going to pick up right where he left off and be even better than he was before but this is huge man because the Detroit Lions are going to need his Services if we're going to make that official push for the Super Bowl last year was like H you know they're overachieving right last the year before that nobody expected us to especially starting one and six we literally played to the last game to make the playoffs and just think about it we didn't have we did our part but we needed so much help we couldn't make it then next year we had division winning the division nobody had us going to the conference Championship now they have us not only going back but making the Super Bowl as well and as we talked about in the previous video the we have the third best odds according to ESPN's power football index so jir Gibbs is going to be a big factor in that I I was so nervous when he went we heard he was hurt because we we're going to need what's the what's the slogan uh it takes all of us or something like that that is exactly right it's going to take all of us it's going to take no fumbles in the NFC title game no drop passes in the n title game like it's going to take a Flawless to make it back to a Super Bowl is extremely difficult which is why what Kansas City is trying to do and what they have done is so impressive because it is difficult to get back to get there once let alone get back twice or three times man you know so jir Gibbs happy to see this hopefully he you know he he's good to go he said he's 98 100% I would I really want so you know what jir do ever you got to do you know what I'm saying get get him some ice do whatever you got to do to be one z00 come Sunday that's what we want to see so let me know your thoughts in the comments below jir Gibbs this is colossal colossal the rookie impacts we had last year Sam leapa jir Gibbs Brian Branch I mean these rookies made an impact last year and I can't wait to see all of these guys in year two so let me know your thoughts in the comments below consider subscribing to the YouTube channel as well trying to get to 22,000 subscribers and I need y'all to help me do that because I am trying to stay ahead of the most clickbait Detroit Lions content creators I have ever seen that in in order for me to stay ahead of those guys I'm going need you to subscribe I I really am going to need that it gets a little irritating after a while just just for reference I saw I'm glad I use the word clickbait uh because I saw something in in a video yesterday about me click baiting I do not click bait I might have done that once or twice in all my content creation I will however bait The Click there will be a play on words whatever is in the thumbnail and or the title I always deliver so make sure you do some research before you accuse me of Click baiting also I saw somebody in the comment section when it comes to me liking comments okay so let me explain to you what liking comments is liking I don't know what it does for you guys okay is it special do you care I have no idea but it is my way of acknowledging your comment it does not mean I like what you said it doesn't mean I dis you know I I agree with what you said it is simply a way to me for me to show you I am acknowledging your comment because as the comment section grows as my subscriber count go grows and the interaction grows it it becomes much more difficult to interact with a comment all right if you guys know me I really try to be in in every video but sometimes like the Michel Parson's video if I have a video that blows up and has hundreds of comments it's going to be very very difficult to comment back to all of those I made a video about the when when we got cheated in Dallas last last season and it it's got almost 800 comments there's no way I'm getting through all 800 of those so me liking your comment has nothing to do with whether I agree of what you're saying I don't care if you're a Packers fan a Vikings fan it doesn't matter if if that's just me showing I to comment however I will say this if you have a history of being antagonistic if you are disrespectful to me or anybody else in the comment section yeah you might not get a heart that's just how that is so I that's how that is so don't this whole you getting a heart has nothing now if you say something vile like really really vile I'm not going to hurt that comment but if you say something as simple as telling me that your team is going to beat mine I'll heart that comment I see it I acknowledge it it's not you know how many people don't heart and comment in their comment section go look some of your favorite Detroit Lions YouTube creators may not even interact in their comment section they could have bots in their comment section I try to be very active with you guys in the comment section so chill out with the hearts it simply means I acknowledge your comment and whatever that does for you whatever what it does for me is showing you that I see you right so I don't want to be one of those guys that ever loses touch with my fan base and the fan base of our team all right so hopefully that clears everything up you know who I'm talking to you guys are awesome take care of yourself and each other and as always go Lions football is right around the corner oh my God it's Thursday that's crazy [Music] [Music]
