Luke Willson, a tight end who signed with the Lions two months ago after five seasons with Seattle, is from Windsor, Ontario, right across the Detroit River from the Motor City. He grew up a Lions fan, although that’s not his only motivation to play well after returning to the area.
”I was a big Barry Sanders guy. When I was a kid, it was kind of like the Herman Moore, Barry Sanders,” Willson said this week. ”I was a youngster, but I’ve always kind of, you know [url=http://www.authenticsarizonacardinals.com/cheap-chase-edmonds-jersey]Chase Edmonds Color Rush Jersey[/url] , liked the Lions growing up. But that being said I think it’s important for me to establish a divide. Yeah it was my childhood team, but I’m here to do a job.”
It’s been a fairly quiet offseason for the Lions where free agency is concerned, but Willson was an interesting pickup, especially after Detroit cut ties with tight end Eric Ebron. A former first-round draft pick, Ebron became a target for Lions fans for dropping passes, but he did provide production that Detroit needs to replace. He caught 186 passes over the past four years, including 53 for 574 yards and four touchdowns last season.
In five seasons with Seattle, the 6-foot-5 Willson never had more than 22 catches, but the Seahawks have had other tight ends to throw to like Jimmy Graham and Zach Miller, so Willson may be capable of more.
”I really try to pride myself on being able to do whatever they ask,” Willson said. ”You know [url=http://www.greenbaypackersteamonline.com/customized]Customized Green Bay Packers Jerseys[/url] , my first year we had Zach Miller, I was more the down-the-seam tight end, and Zach got hurt and you know, I had to quickly learn to be more the hand-down type guy. I think that’s kind of benefited me in my career because I feel comfortable doing whatever they ask me to do.”
Willson said at this stage of the offseason, it’s too early to tell what exactly his role will be with the Lions.
”I’m here to do whatever the coaches ask me and right now, you know with all the CBA rules, it’s personally just about getting better each day,” he said. ”A lot of individual stuff for me that I can get better and just showing the coaches what I can do, and then from there they’ll decide what role I’ll be playing this year.”
Despite the proximity to the U.S., Willson said the quality of high school football where he grew up wasn’t great. He played on a summer team he likened to AAU basketball. He ended up playing college football at Rice, and he was drafted by the Seahawks in the fifth round in 2013.
He has carved out a decent NFL career for himself since then [url=http://www.buffalobillsteamonline.com/trent-murphy-jersey]Authentic Trent Murphy Jersey[/url] , and now he has a chance to come back and play close to home – although it sounds like he’ll be living on the Detroit side of the river now.
”Got to shield myself from those Canadian taxes, man,” he said. ”Come on, now. Can’t be doing that. Can’t be doing that.”

New England Patriots safety Duron Harmon was arrested by officials in Costa Rica on Friday for trying to smuggle 58 grams of marijuana into the country, according to the聽La Naci贸n聽newspaper (h/t Pro Football Talk).Harmon was briefly detained, and then sent back to the U.S. It is unknown if the Patriots will discipline Harmon (or even release him), but he certainly could face a suspension from the NFL.The 27-year-old has avoided troubles with the law through his NFL career, so his "first offense" could lead to a minor punishment from the league. Harmon is a two-time Super Bowl champion with the Patriots, and it dubbed by the media as "The Closer," because of his clutch interceptions.Harmon intercepted Joe Flacco in the final minutes of the 2014 AFC Divisional Round, helping the Patriots barely squeak by the Baltimore Ravens. New England would go on to win Super Bowl 48 over the Seattle Seahawks.On top of that [url=http://www.clevelandbrownsteamonline.com/baker-mayfield-jersey]Cheap Baker Mayfield Jersey[/url] , Harmon made the game-saving interception in the end zone of the Pats' Week 15 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, which was overshadowed by a controversial non-catch ruling.Harmon also made a big interception late in the first half off Nick Foles in Super Bowl 52, though the Patriots wound up losing 41-33. Last offseason, he was given a four-year extension worth a max value of $20 million.This isn't the first time a Patriots player has had a rather strange story involving marijuana. In 2016, former Pats pass-rusher Chandler Jones had a bad reaction after smoking synthetic marijuana. In a state of panic, he went over to the Foxborough Police station for help, showing up in only sweatpants. Jones was taken to the hospital and released shortly after. He was not arrested and faced no discipline from the league, as he didn't commit any crimes.It could be a while until the NFL conducts an investigation and leaves a decision on Harmon. But given the strict policy implemented by head coach Bill Belichick, it's possible Harmon may have already played his last snap for the Patriots..
