In Week 12 vs. the Giants, #Lions players will have the opportunity to wear custom cleats as a part of the NFL’s annual #MyCauseMyCleats campaign. LB Derrick Barnes will be representing @DBGDetroit for youth health and wellness.
Detroit PAL, @DBGDetroit, #ProjectPlaySEM and Ralph C. Wilson Foundation were honored at the #NFLDraft for their dedication to Detroit youth in sports. Onji, a flag football player from DBG had the special moment of announcing the Buffalo Bills' 5th round pick.
Thank you @NFL 👏🏾
