After a couple physical practices to start the week, Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell gave his players a bit of a break Wednesday.
"We’ve gone two really good days full pads, and so we’re backing down a little bit," Campbell said before practice. "More mental work today. ... It’ll be light and crisp."
The Lions have padded practices on the docket Thursday and Friday before moving to Ford Field this weekend, but Wednesday's jog-through seemed like an appropriate time to lighten the workload of a couple important players with three full weeks left in training camp.
