Lions Notes: Kyle Vanden Bosch A Big Fan Of Stephen Tulloch

by Sean Yuille on Aug 2, 2011 1:00 AM EDT in Detroit Lions Notes

Kyle Vanden Bosch takes a break during morning drills at the Lions facility on July 30, 2011.

Thursday's Detroit Lions practice -- the first one that free agents are allowed to participate in -- will start at 4:15 p.m. and will be open to the public. Gates open at 3:45 p.m.
Kyle Vanden Bosch describes Stephen Tulloch as a "tackling machine" and a workhorse.
Tom Kowalski explains that Tulloch took a one-year deal because he wanted one that was five years long and the Lions only wanted to offer him something like three years. As a compromise, Tulloch and the Lions settled on a one-year deal, allowing both sides to revisit the situation next offseason.
Speaking of Tulloch, he met with the media following Monday's practice.
Via Paula Pasche, Louis Delmas said this about the defensive signings the Lions made last week: "It’s like night and day for the defense.''
Before coming to training camp, Mikel Leshoure studied film of all his new teammates. He even watched film of Titus Young at Boise State.
The Lions' Super Bowl odds improved after a solid first week of free agency.
Former Vikings, Raiders, Patriots and Titans wide receiver Randy Moss retired on Monday.
One-time Lions quarterback Joey Harrington suffered some serious but non-life-threatening injuries after being hit by an SUV while riding his bike. Here's to hoping he has a speedy recovery.

As fun as it is to poke fun at Joey, I hope he's ok.

I never wish harm to anyone. Except Bin Laden.

Me too

I continue to hear good things about him. I’m really excited to see him play in our offense. Some people think he’s a just a big back, but he has a very good initial burst for his size and a sweet cut back move.
