Actual Detroit Lions football is almost here. On Thursday night, the Lions will kick off their 2015 preseason schedule with a home game against the New York Jets. The Jets come into this game dealing with a lot of drama given quarterback Geno Smith's teammate-inflicted broken jaw. The Lions, on the other hand, have had a pretty drama-free summer so far, and they will look to keep it that way as the preseason gets rolling on Thursday.
