Golden Tate is a pretty tough player to bring down once he's got the ball in his hands.

- Speaking of Tate, he is hoping to follow up his career year in 2014 with another one in 2015.
Tate: "I had a career high year, but for me that’s not good enough. I want to see how many career highs I can stack on consecutive years."

Theo Riddick isn't the only player who was recently hyped up by Dan Orlovsky. Orlovsky also highlighted the recently signed Lance Moore and wide receiver Andrew Peacock. Orlovsky thinks Moore "will be sneaky good" for the Lions, and he said that he's a "Peacock fan."
- According to CBS Detroit, Eric Ebron put on 11 pounds of muscle during an offseason program with his trainer.

When it comes to how many miles the Lions will travel during the 2015 season, they are ninth in the NFL (20,272 miles).
- Finally, this is just funny:
Rashean Mathis said he's had to tell rookie CB Alex Carter not to call him Mr. Mathis in front of teammates. Mathis has known Carter for yrs
