Detroit kicker Jason Hanson, in his 20th season as a Lion, played in his 297th game as a Lion today. That breaks the all-time record for games played by a player with a single team.
Talk about toiling. Being a Lion for 20 years. He played with Barry Sanders. Detroit made the playoffs with some regularity on the latter part of Sanders' career, though they only one 1 playoff game in that time. To date that's still the last playoff game they won, when they went on the lose to Dallas during their Super Bowl Dynasty.
Since then they haven't been to the playoffs in forever. Could this season be the year that changes? They actually have talent on both sides of the ball at the same time for once. We'll see.
