Brian Branch, one of only two DB's this season

Who is the other

So I assume his ankle is okay?

Dan communicated it isnt a big deal… with that said we will no more when they practice and see if he is out there

Belief is that cramping also played a part and per david chao he got an iv after getting carted to the locker room, tapped up and went back out there as they believed it was mainly a cramp… we shall see, i hope its right

CJGJ my guess

Branch said he has always had cramping issues, and it is something he just works thru. The beauty of the NFL is having access to the best resources in the world and millions on the line, so the Lions will most likely find a way to address this.

Another thing I love about Branch…while very aggressive and great in run support, he is very smart about his tackling…I rate of tackle (low rate of missed tackle)…annnnd…the way he does it is not conducive to being injured…He’s not just dropping bombs the way Delmas did that always got him injured, he actually does it in ways where it’s usually not big mass vs big mass…it’s taking them out smarter (keeping him healthier). Small sample size, right now. Sure does seem that way to me thus far.
