Detroit Lions vs. Pittsburgh Steelers odds for Preseason Week 2:

Going into their second preseason matchup of the year, the Lions are currently set as the underdogs against the Steelers with a point spread of 6.5 points. That according to the latest odds from WynnBET (as of this publishing).

Detroit Lions Injury Report vs. Pittsburgh Steelers for Preseason Week 2:

Running back D’Andre Swift returned to practice this past week after missing the team’s preseason opener against the Buffalo Bills due to a groin injury. Despite the return, Swift is not expected to play against the Steelers on Saturday night. Also potentially sitting out of this game are quarterback Jared Goff and Pro Bowl tight end T.J. Hockenson.

Detroit Lions vs. Pittsburgh Steelers Prediction for Preseason Week 2:

In their preseason opener at home in Ford Field, the new-look Lions struggled to put up points early. They scored just three points in the first three quarters against the Bills before exploding for 12 points in the fourth quarter against the worst possible competition on the field.

Expect another low-scoring affair against the Steelers with starters like Goff, Hockenson, and Swift potentially all sidelined for this matchup. The Steelers are favored by nearly a touchdown in this one and for good reason. It will be difficult for this rebuilding Lions team to come out of Pennsylvania with a road victory this early into their new journey together. Steelers 24, Lions 16.
