We’re in Week 4 of Detroit Lions training camp and we still don’t know who is going to be returning kicks for this team once the season starts. There’s a brand new kick off format that really lends itself to players that are looking to break a big return. The Lions have some speedy guys
As some players start to increase their chances to make the final 53-man roster, others begin to find themselves on the wrong side of the bubble.
