The Detroit Lions will give their fringe players one last chance to prove themselves before final cuts in their last preseason matchup against the Browns.

The Detroit Lions have some major roster decisions looming over their heads this week. And though many of the bigger roles have been secured, there are still some spots on the roster where a big performance could change minds.

Against the Cleveland Browns this Thursday, those fringe players will get one last chance to make the Lions’ active roster. Detroit’s final preseason contest of the year will not feature any big name players per say. Instead, the last exhibition is a showcase for those still trying to make the active roster. With final cuts happening this Saturday, this game is their final job interview.
