D.J. Reed Reclaims His Burst for the Lions Defense

from NFL Talk | Detroit Lions · host Man Hour NFL Talk

Veteran cornerback D.J. Reed is working to regain his peak performance following a hamstring injury that hampered his inaugural season with the Detroit Lions. After reviewing game footage, Reed identified a significant loss of explosive speed and lateral quickness during the latter half of the previous year. To address the issue, he utilized stem cell therapy in Panama and implemented improved hydration and recovery habits this offseason. Now feeling fully restored, Reed is poised to lead a revamped secondary as the team’s primary defensive back. His recovery is a focal point of the team's current OTA practices, which also feature several new additions to the roster. These updates come amidst broader organizational changes, including shifts in the offensive line and defensive coaching staff.
