Lions notes: Detroit tries out three players

• The Detroit Lions recently tried out three players, according to Aaron Wilson: quarterback Nathan Enderle, wide receiver Devin Aromashodu and wide receiver DeMarco Sampson.
  
  
• Lions cuts Blake Clingan, Kevin Haslam, Darren Keyton, Ogemdi Nwagbuo and Amari Spievey all cleared waivers.
  
  
• The Lions placed Jon Morgan and Martavius Neloms on injured reserve after they cleared waivers. Both were waived/injured on Saturday, and they could later be released from IR with an injury settlement.
  
  
• I like the sound of this:

  NFLdraftscout called DeJon Gomes a "turnover machine" before 2011 draft. In 23 games at Nebraska, he had 7 picks, forced 5 fumbles

• Interesting stat from John Clayton: 14 teams (as of early Sunday) only have two quarterbacks on their roster.
  
  
• ESPN's Kevin Seifert took a closer look at Martin Mayhew's drafts and why the Lions are the oldest team in the NFL.
  
  
• This is pretty wild:

  Rare to see this: Browns claimed six players on waivers, Jaguars claimed seven, Chiefs claimed seven, Patriots claimed four, Jets three.

  I can't imagine it's a good sign if you feel the need to claim that many players right before the start of the season.
  
  
• Tim Tebow cleared waivers on Sunday, indicating that his NFL career has likely come to an end.
