NFL Workout Updates: 9/28/19
Only one lone workout to report tonight on an otherwise quiet Saturday evening:
Detroit Lions
- P Sean Smith
The Lions have had the same punter, Sam Martin, for the past seven seasons now. He’s always been solid but not spectacular and there’s indication he’s dealing with an injury, so it’s possible the Lions are just updating their emergency list. Smith is an undrafted rookie from Dayton, who briefly spent some time with the Ravens this offseason.
