After months of celebrating the sweet, sweet ending of the 2024 season, it’s now time to turn the page and look at what 2025 will bring. The NFL pre-season will officially get underway Thursday night with the Hall of Fame game between the Detroit Lions and Los Angeles Chargers.
The Lions are already dealing with some injury issues so it doesn’t seem likely many starters take the field in Canton, but the Chargers are led by Jim Harbaugh who is the kind of coach that will use the opportunity to the fullest.
There will be several familiar faces on the field (or sidelines) for Eagles’ fans. For Detroit: LB Zach Cunningham, CB Avonte Maddox. For Los Angeles: OG Mekhi Becton, WR Jalen Reagor.
Here’s everything you need to know about tonight’s game.
