Up next in the Detroit Lions 2022 training camp preview series is arguably the deepest position on the entire roster: running back.
The Lions have a nice group of diversely skilled backs under RB coach Duce Staley, a reflection on the coach himself as a player. Detroit deploys multiple backs without a traditional lead or bell-cow back, so having depth is important.
This group also features what figures to be one of the biggest training camp battles for a roster spot or two. A lot depends on how many RBs the Lions decide to keep, which means special teams get factored in strongly after the top two roster locks.
