Now this is interesting. Everybody is locked in on Meeks being the nephew of Z but did you guys see where he played the 3 years before this last one at Syracuse?

He played 3 years at Georgia where he couldn't get up the depth chart at WR so was a STs monster.

So who was one of those players in Georgia he was fighting for playing time with at Georgia, Lions 2024 7th round pick Lovett. Considering Meeks got the big bonus to sign he might have done better than his former teammate.

This also plays into Holmes saying he visits Georgia practices so he saw both of these two up close and thought it very interesting he got both of them and they must have debated which one to draft. Probably came down to Meeks saying he would sign, smart man.

They have very similar games, it really is one will be the 6th WR and the other going to the practice squad and this battle won't end there.

Wonder if either of them can return punts, guess I should include Teslaa in that. If they are eventually replacing Raymond the Lions will need a punt returner for the future. None of the 3 returned punts in college, none of the 3 have that "jitterbug" quality associated with punt returners

One thing for certain, Tom Kennedy is going to have a real hard time sticking around.
