O'HARA: Opportunity plus production equals more reps for Riddick

Theo Riddick isn’t looking to score points with his unorthodox style of catching passes.

“It’s a little awkward, I guess,” Riddick said after the Lions’ training-camp practice Thursday. “A lot of people kind of make fun of me.

“A lot of people say my hands are always placed differently. I kind of look it in. My hands do the rest. “

But nobody is asking him to change, and why should he?

“As long as I keep catching them,” Riddick said, “I’m not worried about it.”

Riddick was the Lions’ most sure-handed receiver out of the backfield last year.
