Sellout put Lions' home opener on TV in Detroit

The Detroit Lions have sold out their Sunday home opener against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Lions president Tom Lewand says several hundred tickets for Sunday's game that were returned by the Chiefs were available on Wednesday.

The sellout puts the game on TV in the Detroit, Lansing, Saginaw-Flint and Toledo, Ohio, markets.

Detroit opened the season with a win at Tampa Bay and can improve to 2-0 with a win over the Eric Berry-less Chiefs.
