Lions name their team captains for 2020

Jarrad Davis, Don Muhlbach and Matt Stafford are among the 6 Detroit Lions captains for the 2020 NFL season

One of the final orders of business for the last practice before Week 1 was to select the captains for the Lions team. The Lions revealed the choices for the six captains on Friday.

Elected by the players, here are the 2020 Detroit Lions team captains:

  • Jarrad Davis
  • Taylor Decker
  • Trey Flowers
  • Duron Harmon
  • Don Muhlbach
  • Matthew Stafford

Davis, Muhlbach and Stafford have all been captains for each of the last three seasons. In recent years the Lions have designated seven team captains but this year dropped the leadership contingency.

The Lions do have honorary captains that will serve for an individual game during the season, but those are different than the permanent player team captains.
