I mean I knew and want Azone to not re sign for the money he’ll be asking, but what the fuck even this is post?
I don’t love him as a player… But they did him wrong giving him a 100k while an inferior player Barnes gets paid and plays too many snaps.
IDK why people are reacting negative to this. They are paying Campbell and telling Alex to kick rocks
Thank you for your service Analzone 🫡 I wish you the best
not sure this gives anything away either way, doesn’t seem set in stone on if he’s returning or not.
He was instrumental to turning the culture around and I will never forget the torture chamber he had the Vikings TEs in week 18 last year… but it’s time. He very clearly lost a step this year and the money has to go elsewhere.
It’s been pretty clearly implied that the team isn’t willing to meet his contract asks and that he’s planning to test the market. I think we’ll miss his coverage ability, but he’s 31, coming off a somewhat down season’s performance, and playing a position where we have some depth.
I think those factors may end up conspiring against his options on the open market and I hope the bridge with the team isn’t burnt so he’d consider taking a team-friendly deal if that’s the only one available.
Jets will give him 2-3 years
How do you not proofread a quasi retirement post?
I am also not see 😔😔😔
What’s not unexpected?
Isn’t he an FA?
Locker room/team dude to the extreme. He was a huge part of building the culture and I’ll always love him for that. Go and get yourself paid, AnalZone.
We’ll always be in the Zone.
Cheers, Alex!!! Thanks for everything Big Dogg!!
Linebacker is the only position on the team where we have depth. See ya.
I think he will reunite with AG
Every time I get in the Anal Zone, I will think of you.
Er…yea. I said it.
Our Anzalord and Savior
This team could look very different next season.
He will be loved somewhere else where he will get a last big bag. He’s good enough to have another good season for another team and he doesn’t even play well in our scheme because he’s not the best cover LB.
We got some serious holes to fill in next season’s roster. Crazy how quickly you can go from the number one seed to 9-8. The Eagles, Niners, Rams all had down season before storming back! Let’s go Lions!!
I’m forever grateful to Alex for helping turn this team around. I wish him nothing but success in the future.
The Lions wouldn’t extend him past this year when Anzalone wanted an extension last year, he was public about it. He’s a FA next year. He’s definitely going to be gone next year, this is not a surprise. I wish him the best, he played hard, he’ll be 32 but has gas left in the tank.
Get in the zone. The analzone! Regardless of where he ends up next season I’ll be cheering for him.
Only gator, I will ever root for! Good luck my man!
He’s always had that dog in him. So happy to have watched him in Honolulu Blue for the past few seasons! Nothin but respect!
Good luck on the jets big dawg
Enjoy your paycheck but thank god we’re not paying him to be a slightly above average linebacker
This sub is wild with reading into social media posts.
This team is going to look drastically different next year.
I don’t like cryptic tweets, it’s reminiscent of Charlie Murphy just before he died.
I’d hate to see Anzalone retire, cause oh my goodness he is so freaking handsome with such great hair.
Totally expected. Why do you think he sat? Also held out during preseason
It’s campbell, barnes and Rodriguez now
Makes me sick. I loved that guy.
At best he’s on a 2 year deal. As he said last year, he would like to retire as a Lion, which means he’s wanting long term deals, which is something the Lions are not going to offer older players when they have a heap of young guys coming through.

Yo what has happened to this fucking locker room?
