EDTShareTweetShareShareThursday open thread: Should the Detroit Lions retire Charlie Sanders’ number? Photo by Al Messerschmidt/Getty ImagesDetroit Lions rookie T.J. Hockenson decided to select the No. 88, which seems like an innocuous decision. However, given that Lions Hall of Famer Charlie Sanders once sported the 88, there’s a little more that goes into that decision. Hockenson knows the weight in carrying that legacy, but his decision to pick the number has sparked a different conversation.In an official statement from Charlie Sanders’ daughter, Charese Sanders-Sailor brought up the idea of retiring he father’s number.“Although we would have loved for our father’s number to be officially retired...” she said. Obviously, retiring a number can be complicated in football. NFL rosters are so big—90 players at this time of year—and if a team makes it a habit of retiring numbers Eli Harold Jersey White , they could find themselves in a very difficult place down the road when trying to assign numbers to players. So today’s Question of the Day:Should the Lions retire the number 88 for Charlie Sanders?My answer: This is a difficult situation, because you’d love to honor more players from your franchise’s history, but can obviously only hold the retired number in extremely high regard if you’re going to leave any numbers for current players. At Wednesday’s Taste of the Lions event, team president Rod Wood addressed the situation, and probably came up with a solid solution.“The more numbers you retire, obviously that creates issues with numbers for current players,” Wood admitted. “With the ‘Pride of the Lions’ folks we’ve inducted this year http://www.lionslockerroom.com/authentic-frank-ragnow-jersey , I think we're’ probably going to tilt in the direction of recognizing players by putting them in the ‘Pride of the Lions’ and be very judicious with retiring numbers.”Pride of the Lions is Detroit’s version of the “Ring of Honor” in which former players get permanent fixtures of some sort at Ford Field. Last year, Lomas Brown, Alex Karras and Herman Moore were inducted to the Pride of the Lions, joining 15 other former Lions players—including Charlie Sanders. It’s not a perfect solution, but it’s likely the most practical. Your turn. Happy New Year! The Detroit Lions started the new year by signing a new quarterback to the team in the hopes he can compete for a roster spot in 2019. It already looked sour for former developmental backup Jake Rudock when the Lions did not sign him to a futures deal when given the opportunity to do so, but now that they’re officially bringing in new blood we can probably close the book on the former sixth rounder out of Michigan. The signing of Connor Cook to a futures deal likely isn’t the only move the team makes at quarterback for 2019, but it’s a start.Connor Cook was drafted by the Oakland Raiders in the fourth round of 2016. 100th overall was far lower than many had projected him as he was being looked at as a potential first or second round pick for much of the draft process. His slide was attributed at the time to some character concerns regarding his ability to lead a team Womens Nick Bellore Jersey , but considering how his NFL career has gone up to this point it’s just as likely, if not more so, that his perceived talent was simply higher among the media than it was among NFL teams.Cook has only seen game action twice in the NFL, but he holds the distinction of being the only quarterback in NFL history whose first start was in the postseason, starting the Raiders’ 2016 playoff game against the Houston Texans. The Raiders would go on to lose that game, with Cook completing only 18 of 45 passes for a single touchdown with three interceptions. He would lose his backup spot in 2017 to former first-round pick EJ Manuel, then would later be cut after the Raiders traded for AJ McCarron. With his Raiders career ended by a duo of guys who go by their initials Womens Marvin Jones Jr Jersey , Cook would spend time on the Carolina Panthers and Cincinnati Bengals practice squads in 2018.The Detroit Lions now have two quarterbacks under contract for 2019, Matthew Stafford and Connor Cook. They have not re-signed backup Matt Cassel, but I wouldn’t rule out the veteran’s return should they decide to have a veteran presence in camp. Jake Rudock may still find his feet for an NFL team, but at this point he is one of only two practice squad quarterbacks who have not signed a futures deal with an NFL team. The other, Nathan Peterman, tried out with the Lions before ultimately landing with Jon Gruden and the Raiders near the end of the 2018 season.
