Detroit Lions standout receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown is quite recognized nowadays for not hesitating to stir the pot.
I mean, his selection of clothing is one instance.
However, that intensity is typically directed at athletes from opposing teams. While appearing on the St. Brown Podcast, Lions running back Craig Reynolds revealed an unexpected detail — he disliked Saint when they initially met, and Saint reciprocated that dislike.
“He had the silver hair to begin with; I found that s*** to be cheesy, man,” Reynolds reflects on his initial impression of St. Brown during his rookie season in 2021.
Reynolds mentioned that they were promoting St. Brown in film sessions, but he wasn’t recognizing the attraction.
“He was arrogant, man, I’m thinking that by the season’s end I could take him on… and we’re on the same team,” he stated.
St. Brown subsequently expressed his initial thoughts on Reynolds, which were equally critical. The two ultimately connected when they played in the same game during the 2021 season against the Denver Broncos, lamenting at the sideline water cooler over another defeat — the season concluding with a 3-13-1 record.
The entire clip is enjoyable and definitely worth watching. You can tell the guys are tight when they can joke around about one another while laughing the whole time. Although the situation in the Lion world might appear somewhat grim, it’s still pleasing to observe the team’s fondness for one another.
Now let’s move on to the remaining notes you have.
It’s the time for reviews by each position. Justin Rogers from the Detroit Football Network focuses on wide receivers today.
It is also the time for mock drafts. A to Z Sports’ Mike Payton presents a seven-round mock draft following the Senior Bowl practice week.
