Mikel Leshoure hopes to pick up Lions playbook 'piece by piece' during lockout

The Detroit Lions players resumed their player-organized workouts Monday and they had a fresh face attend for the first time: rookie running back Mikel Leshoure.

The running back from Illinois was sporting a fresh tattoo -- a large Lions logo on his forearm.

"I got it three or four days ago," said Leshoure, adding that he won't have to get the tattoo removed if he gets traded because there's a date tattooed under the logo.
