Spirit of Detroit gets new jersey for 2024 NFL draft

(Detroit Free Press) The Spirit of Detroit was outfitted in a giant blue jersey this week as the 30-day countdown to 2024 NFL draft in Detroit begins.



Dressed in the shirt on Wednesday, the Spirit will wear the jersey through April, in anticipation of the 2024 NFL draft hosted by the city in Campus Martius and throughout downtown Detroit from April 25 through 27. The jersey is blue — but not Honolulu blue — with NFL draft labels and logos and the number 24.

The iconic city statue first dressed in Detroit Lions gear in 2015 and frequently dresses up in support of major sporting and cultural events.
