Sweet Sassy Molassy Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Lions release WR Marko Mitchell As the Lions wrap up their offseaon with the final day of a mandatory minicamp, they've made at least one roster move, releasing receiver Marko Mitchell. Mitchell was an intriguing big target the Lions claimed off waivers in early May, but he struggled to show much during OTAs. And without adding anything on special teams, he wasn't going to make the roster. We'll see if this move clears room to sign another player like safety Randy Phillips, who was here on a three-day tryout.

CM916 Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Mix still plays in the AFL for Arizona and he's still tall, I saw him play in Tampa. As for Marko, I didnt even notice he got cut here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsCrushCowboys Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 I had high hopes for him last year and ****ed and moaned that he was not getting any PT, guess the coaches know more than I do...go figure. 0-2, will be hard for him to catch on other than practice squad somewhere. With his height, he must have a big problem understanding and running routes or has devloped a case of the stone hands... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow I guess Shanny really did KNOW what he was doing when they released Marko after all imagine that :wink: Hopefully Marko can catch on somewhere else. Best of luck to him.
