Summary
The Detroit Lions remain confident that defensive tackle Alim McNeill will return to his pre-injury form in the 2026 NFL season. McNeill suffered a torn ACL late in the 2024 season and worked hard to return in 2025, but his performance was inconsistent and left him frustrated. Despite playing 10 games in 2025, he didn't resemble the dominant player who earned a four-year, $97 million extension. Defensive coordinator Kelvin Sheppard has praised McNeill's accountability and work ethic during organized team activities, expressing belief that he will bounce back.
