Lions, Jaguars lose OTAs
Football Betting Lines
06/17/2010 -
Allen Park, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Detroit Lions and Jacksonville Jaguars
have been forced by the league to cancel organized team activities because of
violations in rules governing offseason workouts.
A joint statement from the NFL and NFL Players Association said it was
determined the Lions violated rules pertaining to the intensity and tempo of
drills conducted on one of the team's organized team activity (OTA) days.
Because of that, the statement said, the Lions will forfeit OTA days scheduled
for June 21 and 22. Detroit players will not be permitted to be at the
practice facility on those days but will be paid for the sessions. The
sessions cannot be re-scheduled, while Detroit's mandatory mini-camp, set for
June 23-25, will continue as scheduled.
"We will comply with the League's directive and we will continue to respect
and emphasize the NFL's rules and regulations regarding the off-season
training program," said a statement from Lions general manager Martin Mayhew.
The Jaguars forfeited a week of their offseason program (June 21-25), losing
OTAs scheduled for next Monday and Tuesday, because of the same reason.
Jacksonville players can return to the team facility after the OTA suspension,
while the Jaguars' first training camp practice is set for July 30.
Earlier this month, the Baltimore Ravens canceled their final week of OTAs
after learning of similar violations.

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch
Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game.
Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta.
"Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."
