Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell said that he wants to get the starters a quarter's worth of repetitions in Friday's preseason opener against the Atlanta Falcons.

Houston Texans tight end Pharaoh Brown lost 18 pounds this offseason after watching film of himself and deciding that he looked slow and unathletic.
