EDTShareTweetShareShareLions notes: Seattle Seahawks ‘front-runners’ to sign Ezekiel AnsahRaj Mehta-USA TODAY SportsNow that the portion of free agency that affects compensatory picks has passed, many expect some of the bigger names in free agency to sign with new teams in the very near future. One of those players is former Detroit Lions defensive end Ezekiel Ansah, who has met with several teams this offseason. According to Ian Rapoport, the front-runner to land the pass rusher is now the Seattle Seahawks:Ansah has shown a knack for pass rushing in this league—tallying 44 sacks in his first five yards in the league. That’s something the Seahawks will certainly be hoping to harness should the sign him, even though they drafted L.J. Collier in the first round in the draft. However, injury concerns have caused plenty of teams to take caution with Ansah. He has missed 14 games in the past three seasons combined. His latest major injury, a torn labrum suffered late in the 2018 season T.J. Jones Jersey White , required surgery to repair it. His progress at this point is unclear.We’ll see if the Seahawks seal the deal soon, but unfortunately for Detroit, it means no compensation is coming their way—although any compensation was unlikely anyways considering how active Detroit was in free agency. Lions sixth-round rookie running back Ty Johnson is ready and excited to be a Detroit Lion: File this under: “WHO CARES?” or “I wish him the best,” but this is an interesting look at how Eric Ebron has assumed an emotional leadership role on the Colts already.

The Miami Dolphins' run defense is stuck in reverse, perhaps taking the season with it.Poor tackling, botched assignments and a manhandling up front doomed the Dolphins on Sunday, when the Detroit Lions ran for 248 yards to win 32-21.It was Detroit's biggest total in 21 years, and the second bad game in a row for the Dolphins' run defense. They allowed 164 yards rushing a week earlier but still somehow managed to beat the Chicago Bears in overtime."We have a lot of work to do," defensive end Cameron Wake said. "I'm not panicking yet."Lions rookie Kerryon Johnson rushed for 158 yards on 19 carries, including a 71-yard draw play where he was untouched until tackled. LeGarrette Blount added 50 yards on 10 carries Womens Tavon Wilson Jersey , and both repeatedly broke tackles as the Lions averaged 7.1 per rush."Johnson, LeGarrette, they're big backs," Miami defensive tackle Akeem Spence said. "With those guys, you have to tackle in committee. One guy can't bring them down. You need two, three guys. That's on the defense. We just have to be better."With the loss, the Dolphins (4-3) fell out of first place in the AFC East. Linebacker Raekwon McMillan acknowledged they played on their heels."We fell back on our attack-type mentality Tavon Wilson Jersey White ," he said.That meant the front seven was dominated, with the line surge so tepid Miami had not one tackle for a loss.The issue extended beyond running plays. Matt Stafford had plenty of time to throw and went 18 for 22 for 217 yards and two scores, with just one sack."We couldn't stop them," Miami coach Adam Gase said. "That's just what it was. They were executing better than us, and we just didn't do enough to affect the quarterback. It didn't seem like he got out of rhythm."That was really the No. 1 thing we were talking about all week. That guy, if you give him time and he doesn't feel the pressure up front and we're not tight enough in coverage, you're going to have problems."The Lions scored on seven of nine possessions. They punted once and ran out the clock once.And they sustained drives while converting only twice on third down. The Lions gobbled up yards in such large chunks they earned 21 first downs on first- and second-down plays."I'm pretty sure there weren't too many third-and-longs out there Kerry Hyder Jersey ," Wake said.Miami's performance was reminiscent of a loss last November at Carolina, when the Panthers racked up 294 yards rushing. The Dolphins won only two more games the rest of the season.In this instance, solutions need to come quickly. The Dolphins play Thursday at the Houston Texans (4-3), who earned their fourth consecutive victory Sunday by winning at Jacksonville."Usually I say you've got about 24 hours to pat yourself on the back or lick your wounds," Wake said. "Now you've got about 30 minutes."Follow Steven Wine on Twitter: ://Steve_Wine « Riley Ridley Jersey LimitedEnjoy obtaining rs3 gold with 6% off on RSorder from Aug.13 » Weitere Artikel der Kategorie Allgemein |
