Pride Of Detroit on Jahmyr Gibbs
From the article
running back Jahmyr Gibbs wasn't there on the practice field. He has officially reported to camp, as evidenced by a photo from the Lions' media team, but at this point it's pretty clear Gibbs doesn't intend to actually practice until there is some sort of new contract deal in place.
STACKED’s take
Gibbs holding out from camp practice to negotiate new contract extension.
Gibbs is holding out from training camp practice despite officially reporting to the Lions, using a contract negotiation tactic to secure a new deal beyond his rookie contract. The Lions exercised his fifth-year option earlier in the offseason, keeping him under contract through 2027, but Gibbs is leveraging the typical window when the Lions extend their best players still on rookie deals. The source notes this is the first contractual snag under GM Brad Holmes, whose previous extensions have been completed well ahead of time with no drama. Gibbs has missed a single practice as of the article's writing, with Adam Schefter reporting relatively optimistic progress in contract talks.
