Isaiah Thomas is making his Detroit debut today. The Lions defensive end, signed off the Bengals practice squad before Week 7, figures to see considerable playing time in the matchup against the visiting Tennesee Titans.
In a nod to his new city, Thomas played homage to a Detroit legend. Isaiah Thomas the Lions EDGE showed up to Ford Field in the jersey of Isiah Thomas, the legendary Detroit Pistons star.
Thomas won’t wear “Zeke’s” legendary No. 11 for the Lions, however. That belongs to wideout Kalif Raymond, who is also going to get a bigger role in the Week 8 game. The Lions’ Isaiah Thomas will wear No. 35 on defense.
