The Detroit Lions took the field on Tuesday for their first of three minicamp practices. All but one of Detroit’s 89 players were accounted for, with the one exception being edge defender Austin Bryant.
Given that for most of these players this week of practices will be their last until training camp in late July, Tuesday’s session was important to make a good impression upon the energetic coaching staff.
There were a lot of chances for the media to evaluate play, as the Lions mixed in individual work, one-on-ones in the passing game, and a couple sets of red zone seven-on-sevens.
