The Lions held their first evening practice of the offseason, kicking off the session at 6 p.m. in front of a full house of fans. Nearly every practice over the last couple of training camps has been run in the morning, so it was a nice change of pace to mix things up for the players. Detroit has a lot more primetime games on the docket, and it makes sense to have them used to competing later in the day.
The units were back in full pads, but hardly at full strength. Injuries continue to be a major development for the Lions, and Monday night’s practice added some more concerns to the list.
Here’s what I saw, heard and took away from the Lions practice on August 12th.
