Lyons Earns His Spot

May 3rd, 2010 - 3:33pm by Gray Caldwell

On Friday, Dicky Lyons stepped onto the practice field at Dove Valley for a tryout. Three days later, he officially signed with the team as a free agent.

The team also waived rookie running back Chris Brown, who signed as a college free agent from the University of Oklahoma.

Lyons is a first-year wide receiver from the University of Kentucky. He finished his career at Kentucky with 141 receptions for 1,752 receiving yards and 18 touchdowns, ranked fifth, fourth and third, respectively, in school history.

He became the first Wildcat to post multiple touchdown receptions in three consecutive games as a sophomore in 2006.

He went to Holy Cross High School in New Orleans, where he totaled nearly 2,000 receiving yards and returned 15 kicks for touchdowns during his career.

    We could trade him back to the Bears they need a veteran to back up Cutler. Oh man wouldn’t that be the funniest darn thing. After last season, all the Bears fans wanted Orton back LOL!

    Yeah.LOL…You think we could get 2 first round picks for him??

    Don’t get me wrong I think Orton is a good player and a team player,but if McD can’t take the chains off him and let him throw deep,and with good accuracy,I say we don’t need him,but on the other hand it would be hard to start a rookie too,and Quinn is pretty much a rookie like Tebow,cause he ain’t got much experience either,I guess I can live with the coaches descision.

    Just hate to be set up for a big let down like last year,I’m tired of the Chargers and their big mouths,we’ve always been the Best in the West,and it’s about time we start showing it,I wanna win NOW!!!

    The articles say Quinn is familiar with our Offense.
    the articles say Tebow is somewhat familiar if we run the spread.

    I just wanna see who our Franchise QB is and roll with him,who says a Rookie can’t start??? look at what Sanchez and Ryan did.
