OT: Damien Woody to start at RT for first time...

[DisgruntledTunaFan]

Since HS. Got this off of the Lions' MB.

Jonathan Scott was placed on injured reserve today with a severe hamstring injury. The Lions signed free agent Barry Stokes, who is expected to be the backup to Damien Woody, who was moved from guard to tackle. Woody said he hasn't played right tackle since high school but is looking forward to the challenge. At this point, George Foster appears to be completely out of the picture.

Also, quarterback Jon Kitna didn't practice today because of a sore left knee. He said he hopes to practice on Wednesday. Finally, head coach Rod Marinelli firmly denied reports that owner William Clay Ford instructed the coaching staff to get rookie receiver Calvin Johnson more involved in the offense. "It's a lie,'' Marinelli said

Woody as tackle?? That should be interesting...

 

[psychoPat]

Can one say,
he grew into the role?

Too funny - you can't make this stuff up...

"Damien Woody will play right tackle this Sunday. In a related story, starting quarterback Jon Kitna suddenly developed a sore knee and is questionable for Sunday."

If I'm the 2nd and 3rd string QB I might want to be "questionable" as well.

Look at it this way, at least he won't have to do the shotgun snap!
