The Facts:
Broyles ruptured his Achilles tendon while fielding a punt in an Oct. 27 win against the Dallas Cowboys, ending his season. Five months later, he was cleared by doctors to rejoin the Lions for the start of voluntary conditioning this week. And that's huge news for him.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The receiver has missed 16 games through his first two seasons in the league, and the Lions, who once thought Broyles would be a complement to Calvin Johnson, could be looking to revamp their starting lineup. They already signed Golden Tate to be Johnson's No. 2, and now are expected to select a receiver in the draft. They haven't masked their high interest in Clemson's Sammy Watkins, the top receiver in the draft.
