Lions training camp notebook from July 30: Defensive back improvement

Detroit Lions training camp notebook from July 30th with an emphasis on the Lions defensive backs

Detroit Lions training camp is a great way to kick off a beautiful, sunny morning in Detroit. Head coach Dan Campbell enthusiastically entered the media tent right at the scheduled 8 a.m. presser, starting my first day at camp on the right foot.
