Lions clear Broyles, activate him from PUP
Ryan Broyles (knee) has been medically cleared to practice and removed from the active/PUP list.
That was even quicker than we optimistically could have expected. Broyles' removal from the camp PUP list means he is ineligible for regular season PUP and should be available for Week 1. As a polished route runner with superior run-after-catch skills to Nate Burleson, Broyles could make an immediate push for playing time. We'll watch him closely in preseason games. With Calvin Johnson and Titus Young on the perimeter, we like Broyles to emerge as a 90-catch guy once he's fully healthy and integrated into the Lions' pass-first offense.
90 catches....so almost as many as Calvin?
Could be a good value in round 3!
