Detroit Lions held camp on Sunday in front of media and select season ticket holders. Below is a recap of the day based on photos and videos posted to social media.
Before practice
Chris Spielman, who was recently announced as one of the commentators for Detroit Lions preseason games, was at camp and spoke highly of a few Lions rookies:

Lions fans also got treated to their first look at the new cheerleading team:
A fairly big crowd of fans were ready to watch the Lions play (screenshots taken via the official Lions snapchat account det-lions):
During practice
We got to see a few neat videos thanks to some beat writers, including Tyrunn Walker taking the rookie A'Shawn Robinson to school:

And apparently Devin Taylor beating Ezekiel Ansah in the same drill (for the second day in a row?):
But it wasn't just about the defense, Matthew Stafford looked good throughout the day, as did the Lions receiving corps. Check out the first two catches from Marvin Jones and Golden Tate:
After practice was over, players stuck around for autographs and fan selfies. Rookie Taylor Decker stayed extra long:
Decker ran out of time to talk to media today because he spent so much time with fans. Tough to be mad about that. https://t.co/1hyv46Wc61
