Lions' rookie Redding builds momentum with strong minicamp

Allen Park — Standing next to him, it looks like a stiff breeze might knock Teo Redding over. By NFL standards, the Detroit Lions' undrafted rookie receiver is about as slender as they come, packing just 181 pounds on his 6-foot-1 frame.

But he plays so much bigger.

While it’s months before the Lions will have to make roster decisions, Redding has put himself on the radar by making impressive catch after impressive catch during the team’s three-day mandatory minicamp this week.

A metro Detroit native who grew up a Lions fan, Redding was a three-star prospect for Michigan Collegiate high school in Warren.
