ALLEN PARK, Mich. (AP) -The Detroit Lions are ready for a new beginning.
Even though Sunday afternoon’s practice was the third of training camp for the Lions. To the veterans and coaches, though, it was the unofficial beginning. After light workouts on Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning, the team put on shoulder pads for the first time in Sunday’s second workout.
“It was good to have guys out there moving around, and we got some good things done,” Lions coach Jim Schwartz said after the morning practice. “But it isn’t going to feel real until we’ve gotten guys out there in shoulder pads like we will this afternoon.”
The team is scheduled to work out twice more Monday before taking another step forward with their first full-padded practice on Tuesday.
