The Detroit Lions and linebacker Alex Anzalone are currently in the midst of a contract dispute, with the veteran looking for a new deal. Head coach Dan Campbell provided some hope for the situation on Friday.

Veterans made their way to Detroit Lions training camp in Allen Park, Michigan, over the weekend with media flocking to ring in the dawn of the new season for the Motor City's NFL franchise. The Lions have big goals ahead of them with a daunting schedule on the horizon and the return of several key players from injury.

Anzalone, one of the first free agents signed by Campbell and Holmes during the 2021 offseason, has been one of the team's most reliable players during its meteoric rise. He hit his first extended stretch of injury woes this past season, when he broke his arm during a Week 11 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell offered several injury updates on notable players, including on linebacker Alex Anzalone, who is dealing with a hamstring injury.

The Detroit Lions' preseason training camp continued in Allen Park Saturday with an 8:30 a.m. practice appropriately dubbed 'Back Together Weekend' as Lions linebacker Alex Anzalone returned to practice.

Lions linebacker Alex Anzalone did not participate in Sunday’s practice, and he’s not set to be on the field Monday, either.
