FB Bryant brings power to running game

FB James Bryant took reps with Detroit’s first-team offense during Tuesday’s OTA workout. The presence of a former CFL FB in drills wouldn’t normally turn heads, but Bryant is the first FB on the Lions’ roster since the team cut Jerome Felton before the 2011 season began. Bryant’s size (6-3, 257) gives Detroit an added blocker in the run game that the team sorely missed in short-yardage situations during the 2011 season.
