The Lions are pointing to the knee injury that bothered Young in the first half of the season even though he hasn't used that leg in three weeks. This is merely a procedural move to banish Young and open a roster spot. The tea leaves in Detroit suggest the subversive Young has played his last game for the Lions after sabotaging his own team's offense and losing the trust of his veteran teammates. With his trade value in the tank, Young could be waived in 2013. |

An easy way to get rid of him without giving him the opportunity to play for somebody else. Nobody should be surprised. _________________

| Wouldn't mind Seattle trading something like a 7th for him or claiming him off waivers in the offseason. If he gives any attitude, just cut his [inappropriate/removed]. |

Lame, he's not even really getting punished, he's getting paid still not to play. I would punish him by making him the QB and telling the offensive line not to block Longest Yard style. Not like the Lions have any chance to make the playoffs so who cares if you lose a few games 107-0. _________________

Waiting for the "you can't just put someone on IR, they have to actually be injured!" crowd. _________________

By week 14 you could literally put the large majority of your roster on IR with a legitimate injury. Young just forced their hand. _________________

You do. I don't think you know much of anything about the process of putting a player on IR if you believe otherwise.
Thing is that pretty much every player is dealing with some sort of injury and with their only being 4 weeks left, it doesn't have to be a major injury. _________________

Hope he can recover from his knee injury and be a productive asset to the organization in the future. _________________
