Thank you for tuning in and joining us today.

We're proudly brought to today by rockauto.com.

Amazing selection, reliably low prices, all the parts your car

will ever need. Rockauto.com. Thank you for joining us again today. Lions were back to work

and back in the practice field today. Very exciting because this weekend, Matt Patricia alluded to

this this morning. The Lions are going to ramp up practice a little

bit more. There's going to be some scrimmages, some hitting, and things are going to get a little

bit more intense coming up this weekend and again, middle of next week. Patricia kind of said,

you know, we're kind of at that spot now where we would be in preseason game number three mode and with

no preseason really the only way this coaching staff can look at the entire roster is through

practices so they're going to ramp things up and do some some 11 on 11 work over the weekend we'll

keep our eye on that all right we can get into some of that today.

I want to talk also about a position of depth that I didn't think was a position of depth

maybe a week ago, but the Lions might have something somewhere where we didn't think they did.

And I'll explain that coming up a little bit here.

Also, you'll hear from Matt Patricia talking about a certain player from that certain group

that I wanted to get to.

Also, the Lions being trendsetters in the NFL.

How is that possible?

We'll talk about that.
