Allen Park — Based on who the Detroit Lions sent to attend, the team took Colin Kaepernick's weekend workout seriously.
Originally, 25 teams were set to attend a Saturday workout for the former 49ers quarterback, but when he pulled an audible because of multiple disagreements with the league and moved the event from the Atlanta Falcons practice facility to an area high school, more than half of those teams backed out.
In the end, only seven teams watched as Kaepernick threw more than 50 passes. Included in that group was the Lions, who sent director of pro scouting Rob Lohman, one of the highest-ranking members in the franchise's front office.
