Titus Young opened up about Mental Issues to ex-teammate
Titus Young has been the talk of the league this offseason.
First, he was released from the Detroit Lions, just two seasons after the team drafted him in the second round. He had a me-first attitude, and it didn’t seem to phase him when they let him go.

Titus Young does his best Chris Rock impression, but no one's laughing
In one of his routines, comedian Chris Rock once said that he’s not saying O.J. Simpson shoulda killed his ex-wife, but he ’understands’… We all laughed, because it’s comedy.

Detroit Lions’ History 101 for Rookies
The young men selected as the new crop of Detroit Lions might want to take a moment to carefully go over the photographs of their predecessors.

Detroit Lions’ Schwartz, Mayhew still looking for the pony
Detroit Lions DE Ronnell Lewis tweeted an apology to fans for his part in an incident in Norman, OK last month. Lewis used Twitter to apologize to “everyone” and by that I presume he means fans, coaches, management and his teammates.

With his Tweets,...
