Lions pick up Jahmyr Gibbs' 5th-year option and decline option for Jack Campbell, AP source says
The Detroit Lions picked up the fifth season of Pro Bowl running back Jahmyr Gibbs' contract and declined All-Pro linebacker Jack Campbell's fifth-year option, according to a person familiar with the moves. Detroit drafted both players in the first round in 2023 and they have helped the franchise win 36 games, two NFC North titles and reach a conference championship game. The Lions will lean on them heavily as they attempt to bounce back from a 9-8 season that fell short of the playoffs and expectations.
