Monday Notes: Gunther Cunningham Talks Chiefs Players; Is It Tampering?
Gunther Cunningham made some comments that sparked a small controversy in part because Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio said that they "cross the tampering line." More on that in a second, but first, here is what Cunningham said: "They [the Chiefs] keep wanting to dump players," defensive...
Sunday Notes: Daunte Culpepper Breaks Silence on Not Starting on Thanksgiving
Prior to the Thanksgiving game, Daunte Culpepper had what appeared to be an interesting conversation with Martin Mayhew about the fact that Matthew Stafford was starting. Everybody, including Culpepper, assumed that Stafford would be out and Culpepper would get the start against Green Bay. That...
Thursday Notes: Lions Sign Billy Cundiff as Camp Breaks
Training camp is now technically over. Players are no longer required to stay in a hotel, and there is no longer a curfew. Practice still continues on, but the players' living arrangements are a bit different now (if they choose to leave the hotel). With Jason Hanson out until at least the start...
Thursday Notes: Inconsistency Highlights 7-on-7 Drill
Louis Delmas missed practice again today and is officially day-to-day with a knee injury. Grady Jackson missed the morning session of practice yesterday, but it wasn't because he was injured. Jackson and Ephraim Salaam both only participated in one practice, as the Lions want to slowly ease...

Wednesday Notes: Lions Seem Ready to Wait on Stafford
Based on what Martin Mayhew has said recently, it doesn't seem like we will be seeing Matthew Stafford start until he is absolutely ready. Mayhew understands that although it is good to get your rookie QB experience, it is more important to make sure they are ready first. He documented the epic...
Friday Notes: Lions Re-Sign Damion Cook
The Lions re-signed offensive lineman Damion Cook. The hope was that they would land Derrick Dockery or Daniel Loper, who visited the Lions earlier this week, but they ended up adding Cook back to the roster. Cook can play multiple positions and started four games at left guard last season. He...
Lions Announce Coaching Staff
The Lions announced their coaching staff for the 2009 season today. The staff is made up of mostly new faces and some holdovers from Rod Marinelli's staff. Here is the full list: Head Coach Jim Schwartz Offense Offensive Coordinator Scott Linehan Offensive Quality...
