Detroit Lions Penalized for Offseason Workout Violations

The team forfeits a scheduled OTA session after breaching NFL's collective bargaining agreement on physical contact.

The Lions were notified of the violation by the NFL and NFLPA regarding a late-May OTA session.
Detroit forfeits Monday's OTA practice as a result of the infraction.
The team had already completed its mandatory minicamp earlier this week.
This penalty reduces Detroit's remaining OTA sessions from three to two.
The NFLPA is considering a broader restructuring of the offseason program, potentially eliminating OTAs.
