ALLEN PARK, Mich. — The Detroit Lions ranked among the league leaders in rushing last season and expect to be just as effective this upcoming season with Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery running behind one of the NFL's best offensive lines. In the first week of padded practice at training camp, the run game has struggled to get its footing. The offensive line returned four starters. Kevin Zeitler, a 13-year veteran, was signed as a free agent to start at right guard after the departure of Jonah Jackson.
