- In case you missed it last week, the Detroit Lions' official site has video of the feature on Calvin Johnson from NFL Network's top 100 countdown.
- Johnson said last week on NFL Network that the Lions are "definitely in a place" where they feel like they could make a run at winning a Super Bowl.
- After having a lot of success running behind Jed Collins in New Orleans during the 2011 preseason, Joique Bell is glad that Collins is now on the Lions.

It doesn't sound like a trade is all that likely at this point, but that could obviously change if the Texans later decide that it's simply best to just move on.

Team said no
