Detroit Lions safety Brian Branch has been spotted for the first time at training camp doing on-field work at the teams Allen Park Performance Center. Dan Campbell provided additional optimism, when he told reporters the former Alabama Crimson Tide safety could return to practice by the end of training camp or in early Septemeber. "These guys have time on task in the NFL with NFL snaps. So, I just love the way the room's set up right now, the way it's structured," Sheppard said. So, we were able to go into training camp with the mentality as far as mid-season trying to bring guys in, get them caught up to speed.
