Detroit Lions Training Camp Observations Day 1 Ft. Jared Goff, D’Andre Swift, & Offensive Line

The Detroit Lions starting training camp today and many observations were reported about the practice on the field. First, Lions QB Jared Goff was accurate completing ⅞ passes including a deep pass to T.J. Hockenson. Lions RB D’Andre Swift was getting much attention in the passing game and making the defense look like fools. The Detroit Lions offensive line has some different personnel today giving a chance for the younger players a chance to play on the interior offensive line. MicroMike gives his thoughts on the Lions training camp day 1.

The Detroit Lions 2021 training camp is officially underway and both myself and Jeremy Reisman were in Allen Park for all the fun of the first day. We spent the day acclimating to the new fan-friendly setup, roaming around the campus looking for the best angles to observe practice, and taking notes of what we observed so we could feed the fanbase their first real exposure to fall football.

Today was Day 1 of the Lions’ acclimation period, meaning no pads (they’re projected to go on next week on Monday) and light work that allows the players to “truly get their legs under them”.

“Getting them acclimated–the reps aren’t that high,” coach Dan Campbell said at his morning presser. “We’re going to have 40 reps these first two days total. That’s between three groups, that’s not a lot. Our starters are going to get 16 reps. When the season comes, they’re going to play 60 plays, 65 plays, 70 plays. We’ll work them in. They’ll have some individual. Get their legs under them. We’ll be able to schematically get our system in because we’ll have the afternoon walkthrough as well. Let’s get their legs under them and get used to this a little bit. Because next week we’re rolling.”

With this lighter approach to the day, we saw a lot of rotations not just among position groups, but throughout the offense and defense as well. At times, the entire first team would work together, but when they rotated out, we saw different variations from the reserves, often mixing the second and third team position groups up in order to spread out the workloads. The Lions were also missing five players from practice, which also resulted in a shuffling of the rotations.
