Detroit has some exciting news: young star Jahmyr Gibbs has re-signed with the team, re-committing to his future with the Detroit Lions. The news was confirmed this morning in an emotional video on Gibbs’ personal page, where he not only shared the good news but also sent a special message to fans: “I have something VERY SPECIAL to tell you all.”

In the nearly two-minute video, Gibbs appears at the Lions’ training facility, smiling as he holds his No. 26 jersey. “Detroit is not just where I played football – it is where I grew up, where I feel like I belong,” he said. “I know I have a lot to prove, and I want to do it with you guys.”
Jahmyr Gibbs – a 2023 first-round pick – has become one of Detroit’s most potent offensive assets. With his quick speed, sharp transitions and fiery spirit, he has quickly captured the hearts of fans. Last season, Gibbs recorded more than 1,200 combined yards and 10 touchdowns, playing a key role in the Lions’ playoff campaign.
However, it’s his commitment and love for the Detroit community that makes this re-signing special. “I didn’t re-sign for football,” Gibbs said. “I re-signed for the love I’ve received from you guys. And in return, I’m planning a surprise for the fans – you’ll find out soon!”
Immediately after the announcement, social media exploded with congratulations and anticipation. Many fans speculate that the “surprise” Gibbs is referring to could be a fan appreciation event, a community campaign, or even a personalized set of merchandise.
Whatever the surprise may be, one thing is clear: Jahmyr Gibbs is here to conquer Detroit – and for Detroit.
