That and more in today’s Notes: Detroit Lions left tackle Taylor Decker has been through it since being drafted in the first round of the 2016 NFL Draft. General managers, coaches—you name it—Decker has seen all kinds of names and faces during his tenure as a professional football player. So while it has been amazing to see all of the young players on this team succeed over the last few years, it has been just as sweet watching members of the old guard like Decker and center Frank Ragnow, among others, enjoying this moment. This week, Decker was next up in Dave Birkett’s ongoing interview series—which have been fantastic and worth your time—and the two touched on a bunch of different subjects that were outside of football. And if you are a bit of a nerd like me, you might appreciate Decker’s love of fictional fantasy books. “Love Lord of the Rings,” Decker told Birkett after being asked what was the last book he had read. “I’ve read all the Lord of the Rings books, I’ve read all the Harry Potter books, stuff like that. Yeah, I’ve read all the Game of Thrones books, even the ones that are the Dance with Dragons ones and stuff like that. I think there’s seven or eight of ‘em out. I’ve read all those.” We don’t want to spoil any of the rest of the interview, so make sure you check it out in its entirety($). And now, onto the rest of today’s notes: Lions wide receiver Allen Robinson joined Colin Thompson on SiriusXM NFL Radio to discuss the Lions' big road win over Minnesota, as well as Dan Campbell’s messaging from earlier in the week.
