Monday open thread: Who will be the Lions’ starting punter?

The Detroit Lions previously had some stability at the punter position thanks in part to Sam Martin taking over back in 2013 as a rookie. However, with his departure in free agency to the Denver Broncos, it opens up a battle on special teams, and one with no clear winner. The Lions did not sign a veteran punter this offseason, although it could be a possibility down the road. Instead, Jack Fox and Arryn Siposs will battle for the starting gig in what could be a tumultuous offseason.
