Re: Matt Veldman
Some comments about Veldman from Lions camp:
The tight end cuts might be the most intriguing. Williams is a blocking tight end. He was drafted with the idea that he'd replace Will Heller as the third tight end and H-back. But in camp thus far, the Lions have been using fullbacks Montell Owens and Shaun Chapas in two-back sets more than an H-back.
The team also signed 6-7 Joseph Fauria from UCLA immediately after the draft, and brought in Matt Veldman, a diversely skilled player who spent last season injured with Jacksonville.
Those two, plus returning starters Brandon Pettigrew and Tony Scheffler, give them conceivably four tight ends who could contribute this season. Veldman and Williams seem to be long-shots at this point, but what happens if Scheffler, who is in the last year of his contract, scuffles in the exhibition games?

Due to a training camp injury and good depth at the TE position, Matt Veldman was released from the Lions today.

Re: Matt Veldman
You'd think the Vike's could use him. Hope they'd give him a look.
Injuries, suck. I really think Veldman had the body for the nfl, but that darn injury bug.....

He's two for two at getting hurt at the worst possible time.
I'm thinking he should start browsing north of the border.
