There was very high attendance at the first week of the Detroit Lions offseason training activities (OTAs) last week. Over 80 of the players on the 90-man roster were in Allen Park for the voluntary practices and meetings.

That number should go up this week. Per Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press, Lions defensive lineman Michael Brockers is expected to attend the second week of OTAs, which kick off on Tuesday and run through Thursday. It will be the first Detroit look at the veteran lineman, who came to the Lions this offseason in a trade with the Los Angeles Rams.

Brockers, 30, did not attend the first week due to some personal family obligations. The versatile veteran comes off a strong season where he logged 51 total tackles and five sacks in 15 games with the Rams.
