Technically, the Detroit Lions’ organized team activities (OTAs) began on Tuesday. However, those practices were quietly held behind closed doors. Later this week, the Lions will open doors to the media, giving us a first look at the full Lions 2022 roster (of players who decide to participate in these voluntary practices).
As always at this time of year, there are more questions than answers with this team. But there is a noticable swell of excitement among the fanbase right now, and many will likely be searching for any signs of validation for their optimism. OTAs will be the first real chance to fuel that fire or throw some cold water on top of the burning flame.
