Simple pandering or a real desire to play for the Lions?
Which ever, Clemson WR Sammy Watkins continues to make it be known that he doesn’t have any qualms when it comes to playing for the Detroit Lions this upcoming season.
Here’s what he told FOXSports.com about the possibility of playing in the Detroit offense:
“I think that would be crazy,” Watkins told FOXSports.com. “You wouldn’t be able to double-guard Megatron. You wouldn’t be able to double-guard me. Basically it would be pick your poison and then you have Golden Tate in the slot. He runs nice routes and is a very physical guy. Then you have Reggie Bush in the backfield. There would be a lot of speed in that offense.
“That’s the type of offense that I want to play in. It’s a very explosive offense. Being with good coaches, an older wide receiver and a quarterback would definitely help me out a lot.”
Nonetheless Sammy Watkins may have a career in politics when his football days are over. Especially in Detroit since Lions fans eat this stuff up.
