Lions vs. Giants joint practice Day 1 observations: Standouts on offense, defense

The Detroit Lions and New York Giants took the field for the first of two joint practices this week that will culminate in the preseason opener. But considering most of the starters will likely rest on Friday, the most interesting action is happening during the week at Allen Park.

With that in mind, here are my observations from Tuesday’s practice.

Offensive personnel notes

With no Frank Ragnow and Jonah Jackson on Tuesday, the Lions inserted Graham Glasgow at center, keeping Halapoulivaati Vaitai as the starting right guard. At left guard, the Lions split time between Kayode Awosika and Darrin Paulo with the first-team offense.
