The Detroit Lions’ fanbase is fired up — and for good reason. The NFL found itself in hot water after posting a strange video that seemed to mock Lions safety Brian Branch before quickly deleting it.
The short clip, originally shared by NFL Films, reportedly took aim at Branch following the recent controversy around his suspension. Fans didn’t hold back — calling the video “classless,” “unnecessary,” and “flat-out disrespectful.” Many accused the league of having it out for Detroit after a series of questionable calls and decisions in recent weeks.
While the NFL has yet to officially comment on the deletion, Lions players reportedly noticed too — and they weren’t happy. The timing couldn’t be worse, as Detroit’s defense continues to rally together amid mounting injuries and outside noise.
At this point, one thing’s clear — you can knock Brian Branch, but you can’t shake this Lions locker room. Detroit’s got that chip on their shoulder again, and that’s exactly how Dan Campbell likes it.
