Family time can be tough to carve out for NFL players during the long season. The bye week provides a good time to reconnect on the family front.
For several Detroit Lions players who happen to be parents of young kids, it proved to be a great opportunity to hang out together. Family is an important part of the Lions culture, and the players–the entire starting offensive line and LB Alex Anzalone–got together with their wives and young kids for a bye-week celebration.

It can be hard to remember that the players have off-field lives. It’s great to see them as proud dads.
