Welcome to the Dan Orlovsky club, Cody Kessler.

Detroit Lions v Minnesota Vikings

Dan Orlovsky had problems of his own on Friday, but he caught a bit of relief when Browns quarterback Cody Kessler ran out of the end zone in the exact same way that Orlovsky did in 2008.

Oh dear. Cody Kessler drops back... And goes out of the back of the end zone.

That's a safety. #CLEvsGB https://t.co/MfHUEEkHNy

Detroit Lions tight end Tim Wright, who is on injured reserve after suffering a torn ACL during OTAs, looks like he’s doing well in recovery:

Speaking of impressive plays from wide receivers, look what Anquan Boldin did to his defender on his 30-yard gain:
