_Lions Expecting Christian Mahogany to Step Up Big Time in 2025_
The Detroit Lions are looking to build on their progress from last season, and one player who is expected to play a crucial role in their success is Christian Mahogany. The young offensive lineman has been pegged as a breakout candidate for the 2025 season, and the Lions are counting on him to step up big time.
Mahogany, a 2023 draft pick, showed flashes of brilliance in his rookie season, but he was also inconsistent at times. However, with a year of experience under his belt, the Lions expect him to take a significant leap forward in 2025.
“Christian has all the physical tools to be a dominant lineman in this league,” said Lions head coach Dan Campbell. “We’re expecting him to take a big step forward this season and become a key contributor to our offense.”
One area where Mahogany is expected to improve is in his pass-blocking. While he showed promise as a run-blocker in his rookie season, he struggled at times to protect the quarterback. However, with a year of experience and a focus on technique, the Lions expect him to become a more reliable pass-blocker.
“Christian has worked hard to improve his technique and footwork,” said Lions offensive line coach Hank Fraley. “We’re expecting him to be a more consistent pass-blocker this season and to be able to handle the elite pass-rushers in this league.”
The Lions’ offense is expected to take a big step forward in 2025, with quarterback Jared Goff entering his second season with the team. With a strong running game and a talented receiving corps, the Lions are expecting to be one of the top offenses in the league.
However, for the Lions to achieve their goals, they will need Mahogany to step up and become a reliable starter on the offensive line. The team is confident that he has the talent and work ethic to do just that, and they are expecting big things from him in 2025.
“Christian is a talented young player who is eager to prove himself,” said Campbell. “We’re expecting him to take a big step forward this season and become a key contributor to our team’s success.”
