Detroit Lions’ rookie minicamp opened up on Friday, but on Saturday, the team made way for the media to observe about a 90-minute session of unpadded practice. While most of the practice involved players working with their positional coaches, there were a few team drills that allowed a more in-depth look at their game.
Here’s our breakdown of what happened during Saturday morning’s practice.
Participation
As expected, Lions' first-round pick Jameson Williams and sixth-round pick James Mitchell did not participate as the pair continue to work back from their respective ACL tears. Mitchell is certainly more close to coming back, but couldn’t provide insight into when he may be back on the field.
