Detroit Lions Team President and CEO Rod Wood had this to say about fans returning in a media release:

We have long awaited the moment where we can officially declare we will have 65,000 fans at Ford Field this fall. We've worked diligently with the NFL, as well looked to federal, state and local guidelines to monitor what's best for our team, staff and fans. We're thrilled to be at this point and to welcome One Pride back into the stadium. I can't say it enough, it hasn't been the same without them.

One of the major considerations for the team in deciding to open the stadium to a full crowd is the steady vaccination rate in Michigan. While the team will not require proof of vaccinations, unvaccinated guests are still recommended to wear masks when inside the stadium.
