With their first six practices of organized team activities in the books, the Detroit Lions are closing in on the end of their formal offseason program.
The Lions host veteran minicamp Tuesday-Thursday this week, then one more week of OTAs before breaking for the summer.
Minicamp is the only mandatory part of the offseason, and if last year is any indication, the Lions won't have many veterans around next week. Lions coach Dan Campbell said he's pleased with the growth his team has shown so far, and a focus this week will be situational football.
