Lions go green
A recent article on foxsports.com mentioned that, in support of recycling practice, the Lions, on Wednesday, will debut lime green "no hit" practice jerseys for Matt Stafford and the two backup QBs. It is not clear how much use thee will get during the preseason and regular season.

Re: Lions go green
Fans who attend the Detroit Lions’ open practice Wednesday at Ford Field will see quarterbacks Matthew Stafford, Dan Orlovsky, Kellen Moore and James Franklin wearing green practice jerseys instead of the traditional red.
The green jerseys will be made from 21 recycled bottles each and are part of the Lions’ new partnership with the recycling fiber brand Repreve.
Fans who attend practice also will receive green Repreve recycled towels and other items.
As part of an initiative to increase recycling at Ford Field this fall, the Lions have expanded the number of recycling bins at the stadium to 500.
