Lions' Derrick Barnes: Sticking around in Motor City

Rotowire Mar 7, 2025

Detroit signed Barnes (knee) to a three-year, $25.5 million extension Friday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Barnes only played in three games in the 2024 season due to suffering damage to his MCL and PCL in Week 3 at Arizona, and the Lions' defense seemed to feel the impact of his absence the rest of the way. He projects as one of Detroit's starting linebackers in 2025.

Lions' Derrick Barnes: Won't return this season

Rotowire Jan 7, 2025

Lions head coach Dan Campbell said Tuesday he does not expect Barnes (knee) to return from IR during the playoffs, Nolan Bianchi of The Detroit News reports.
Barnes landed on IR back in Week 3 due to a knee injury, and while it initially appeared he could make a push to retake the field late in the playoffs, the fourth-year linebacker will instead turn his full attention toward the 2025 campaign. He's slated to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason.

Lions' Derrick Barnes: Could return later in season

Rotowire Nov 13, 2024

Barnes (knee) said Wednesday that he's not ruling out a return from injured reserve later this season, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Barnes has been sidelined since the Lions' win over the Cardinals in Week 3, when he sustained injuries to his MCL and PCL. While he indicated he has a chance to play again in 2024, his odds of doing so would appear to be slim. Through the first three games of the season, the fourth-year linebacker recorded 10 tackles and one pass breakups across 114 defensive snaps.
