On Sunday night, the Detroit Lions held a brief practice at Ford Field. According to Tim Twentyman, 12,409 fans attended the practice, which was followed by a concert. Here's a look at some notes from the practice:
- The list of players who didn't practice included RB Mikel Leshoure, WR Nate Hughes, OT Jonathan Scott, DE Cliff Avril, CB Chris Houston, S Louis Delmas and S Don Carey.
- Avril's first full practice will be on Wednesday.
- WR Titus Young practiced and wore a sleeve on his left leg.
- Young, along with WR Nate Burleson, apparently put on quite a show during practice.
