PrintLooking to add more depth to the tight end position, the Lions signed Jake Nordin to the practice squad. Nordin was on the Lions' roster this past summer and had been playing in the UFL up until last week. The UFL's season came to an end and Nordin's team, the Las Vegas Locomotives, won the championship. UFL players are now free to sign with NFL teams, and Nordin wasted no time in coming back to Detroit.
The Lions also signed offensive guard Kurt Quarterman to the practice squad. Quarterman worked out for the Lions on Tuesday along with Brian Daniels, Carson Butler, Marcus McCauley, Keiwan Ratliff, and Courtney Robinson. With injuries continuing to happen, it's important to maintain a short list of free agents, so it's not surprise that the Lions are doing their homework, especially with the injury bug that has been going around lately.

Is it a bad sign when..........
…….players we signed off waivers and later cut, like Marcus McCauley, start looking good enough to pick up again?
What? He can’t block a dead gopher? Humph, details.
Precisely!
If these guys weren’t good enough to make this squad before, what does that tell you about the state of this team right now.

Wow!
This list is a regular “Who’s Who” of NFL rejects. I mean we all knew this team was thin on talent, but this is getting ridiculous! I’d love to see Matt Millen interviewed by Larry King just to see if Larry would get after him with one of those hard hitting questions like “Matt, when assembling talent…how important is the draft?”

can't wait for the draft
TALENT AWAITS US!
GO LIONS in 2010! the transformation starts now.. they have much to do.
Things are getting thin
Let’s hope the injuries slow to a crawl.
2009 = The start of the Lions Golden Age (We hope).
