WR Titus Young didn't address the reason behind his absence from Detroit’s first week of OTA workouts in a written statement given to media Tuesday. Young's statement said the missed practices were “necessary for both myself and the team.” “The time away from the team afforded me the opportunity to reflect and come to the realization that by putting (his altercation with teammate Louis Delmas) behind me, I will be able to focus on becoming the best teammate and player that I can be,” the statement read in part.
