The Lions had their 2026 offseason team workouts in late-April and early-May. It was our first chance to see some returning Lions who may have had injuries last season. Who was seen working out and who was not – and what does it tell us?
I recapped the notable player injury news and outlook in my Detroit Lions May 2026 Offseason Injury Updates. Here is the excerpt on Giovanni Manu:
(Age at start of 2026 season.)
Giovanni Manu, OT (25)
October 2025 – Unspecified knee injury in practice which effectively ended his season.May 2026 – Offseason workouts.
2026 OUTLOOK: This could be a make-or-break year for Manu. Hopefully, his knee is fully healthy to give him the best opportunity to win a backup OT or “Skipper” role.
