|
|
|
Thought I'd make a thread to help us keep up with all of the news and events happening in TC.
First off, Mikel LeShoure will not start TC on the PUP list and can practice immediately:
| Quote: | Leshoure said he passed his physical and will not start training camp on the physically unable to perform list when practice begins on Friday.
"I had a good summer workout," Leshoure said outside of the facility on Thursday afternoon. "I'm ready."
|
He's even went out to say his Achilles is 100%
Link
| Quote: | | He looked good,” [Kevin] Smith said. “I suggested he come down there because I know how good the place is where I work out at (Bommarito Performance Systems). There’s a lot of running backs down there, Frank Gore, Ben Tate, Maurice Jones-Drew. So it’s just a good group to be around and push each other. |
| Quote: | | “I think for an off-season, coming off his rookie year and with his injury, he looked damn good to me.” |

Ryan Broyles "crushed" his condition test and looks to be ready for TC as well:

Check. So much for all the hate of drafting a hurt player.

Yeah, I mean when we drafted him he was already 6 months removed from the injury and come the start of pre-season around 10 months. _________________

| I never get to bent out of shape about ACL injuries anymore. 10 or 15 years ago it was a different story. Nowadays ACL repair and rehab is pretty standard and not nearly as bad as what they once were. I don't see Broyles having any issues. |

Yep he's starting on PUP. Still hasn't been cleared for contact, though he's able to work out. _________________

Notes from today:
| Quote: | @AnwarRichardson
#Lions CB Dwight Bentley's cover skills are impressive so far
@ttwentyman
RBs Kevin Smith and Mikel Leshoure splitting first-team reps early on in skeleton drills
@davebirkett
Lions using Jason Fox (RT) and Corey Hilliard (Lt) on second team OL
@AnwarRichardson
#Lions backup QB RJ Archer's arm strength is impressive |

#Lions CB Alphonso Smith running with the first team in individual drills
@davebirkett
DB skeleton drill, Alphonso Smith is first in at RCB. Erik Coleman with Delmas at safety
@ttwentyman
S Erik Coleman and CB Alphonso Smith running with S Louis Delmas and CB Chris Houston in drills. Lions are likely to move guys all around. |

@ttwentyman
Rookie CB Bill Bentley the first to come in as 3rd CB in nickel. This is only drills, though. .
@ttwentyman
Looks good. Hasn't lost step. “@aj_kenaya: how does Leshoure look? |

To add on to this:
| Quote: | | #Lions S Erik Coleman starting opposite Louis Delmas. No Amari Spievey yet |
And according to Dave Birkett, they are doing a 7-on-7 drill with Bentley taking first reps at nickel and Smith and Houston on the outside. Smith has lined up at RCB so far in both drills. _________________
