Dallas Cowboys LB Sean Lee said he lost some weight this offseason because he will have to more around more in the 4-3 defensive alignment. ‘I’m a big believer in being able to move in space. However light you need to be to move the way you want, that’s where you need to get to,’ Lee said. ‘As long as I’m strong and I’m healthy and I’m running well and I feel like I can take on linemen and take on fullbacks, then whatever weight I’m at, I’m not too worried.’ Lee was listed as 245 pounds last season but is now 234 pounds.

Cleveland Browns LB D’Qwell Jackson said WR Josh Gordon needs to make better choices off the field if he wants to stay in the league for a long time. ‘No matter how many bodies you put in front of him or people who speak to him, Josh has to be willing to make a change for himself,’ Jackson said. ‘I could talk to him all day if I wanted to. [Head coach Rob Chudzinski] could talk to him all day if he wanted to, but it’s not going to do any good unless he takes that next step. He doesn’t have that many lives left … He’s got one more time to really straighten things up before he’s got to leave. I think he is starting to realize that.’ Gordon has been suspended for the first two games of the 2013 season and could face a year-long suspension if he fails another drug test.
