The second day of Detroit Lions’ joint practices with the Jacksonville Jaguars finished up the two matchups in advance of Saturday’s exhibition game at Ford Field. A sunny morning turned blustery as practice progressed with a cold front tracking quickly into the Detroit area, but the rainy weather held off for the entirety of practice.
Thursday’s practice was not in full pads or full contact, which makes it difficult to evaluate line play and pass rush/protection. The officials on the field were pretty lenient on allowing would-be tackles, letting plays run longer than typically happens in those situations.
Here’s some of the news and notes live from Allen Park on Thursday, August 17th.
