@LordAlpa69 He got dinged up in a practice this week. He's been good in camp overall

[Jeff Risdon @JeffRisdon]

Doing the 1st Lions re-watch. Focusing on OL but I gotta give Jacob Saylors some love. Showed vision, acceleration and toughness as a runner. Clear RB3 based off the game and also training camp.

Rakestraw was in the locker room after the game, wasn't wearing a brace or sling or anything like that on his arm. He said X-rays showed everything is fine structurally.

Nothing long term?

"Nah, not at all. I'll be back."

[Jeff Risdon @JeffRisdon]

Dan Campbell gave unprompted praise to Tay Martin this week and he's had a strong summer. Just made a pretty two-handed snag well away from his frame.

[Jeff Risdon @JeffRisdon]

@blakemurphy7 Aww man, no 🙏

[Jeff Risdon @JeffRisdon]

Also like what I'm seeing from Amen Ogbongbomiga at LB. Dude moves well in space

[Jeff Risdon @JeffRisdon]

Ben Stille made a couple of plays in practice this week and he's been in the backfield some tonight too.

[Jeff Risdon @JeffRisdon]

@NFLinMotion He's been pretty strong overall but has had a couple of rough/rookie days. And yeah we liked him!

[Jeff Risdon @JeffRisdon]

Keith Abney scoops up an unforced fumble and the Lions get their first takeaway of the preseason, in the red zone no less.

[Jeff Risdon @JeffRisdon]

@DetroitOnLion I was with you on this one

[Jeff Risdon @JeffRisdon]

@JoeGoodberry It's sad that this is a necessary post. Hate when they arbitrarily alter your default settings, but this is where we are...

PSA: How to enjoy twitter during NFL games.

1) Get off the "For You" page

2) Use the "Following" page

3) Tap the Following button again and set it to "LATEST"

[Jeff Risdon @JeffRisdon]

@NickJoe58 Sure looked like he was pitching it

[Jeff Risdon @JeffRisdon]

A little surprised we're seeing Josh Dobbs already but let's see what the Passtronaut can do with one practice...

[Jeff Risdon @JeffRisdon]

Two contested catch opportunities for TeSlaa. First bounced off his helmet and got picked off. Next one got to the ground on 4th down. Good coverage but it did hit TeSlaa in both hands.

[Jeff Risdon @JeffRisdon]

Nice to see a decisive Luke Altmyer on that throw underneath to Conklin. He's not always pulled the trigger so quickly in camp.
