Live updates: Detroit Lions face Dolphins in preseason home debut

Michigan native Isaac TeSlaa will make his first appearance at Ford Field since leading Hudsonville Unity Christian to the MHSAA Division 5 state title in 2018. He arrives at the stadium sporting some vintage Lions gear.

The Lions will sport their Honolulu Blue home jerseys for their first preseason game inside Ford Field.

DETROIT -- After a pair of joint practices earlier this week, the Detroit Lions host the Miami Dolphins for their penultimate preseason game of the year.

The teams have seen plenty of each other in the buildup to Saturday's game. It was also the first time the Lions' starters got to see a defense that wasn't their own this preseason.

But that means the game is going to heavily feature second- and third-string players.

For the Lions, the battle for backup quarterback will continue between Kyle Allen and Hendon Hooker. Last weekend's performance against the Atlanta Falcons appeared to give the edge to Allen, but they should both see plenty of action against Miami.

Coach Dan Campbell did not name a starter ahead of Saturday's kickoff.

Even without starters getting in the game, there are still plenty of interesting players to watch out for like cornerback Nick Whiteside and D-lineman Keith Cooper Jr. as they try and stake their claim for one of the final roster spots.

This post will update with inactives, pregame updates, drive summaries, injury updates and more. Follow along throughout the evening.
