Lions wide receiver Isaac TeSlaa made some of the most spectacular catches of any player in the NFL last season. He also had long stretches when he didn't contribute much of anything. This year, the expectation is for TeSlaa to keep making the big plays, but also contribute more tough catches every week.

Toward that end, TeSlaa said the offseason work he did with his own personal trainer made him stronger, and he believes that showed up during the Lions' offseason program.

“I felt like that really helped me get my body back and kind of restore some of that twitchiness I had before,” TeSlaa said, via Jacob Richman of MLive.com. “Just naturally kind of getting it through that but also going through receiver drills and all the training regiments that they have us going through, I felt like it’s really prepared me well.”

Lions wide receivers coach Scottie Montgomery says the change in TeSlaa's conditioning is noticeable.

“He’s so much stronger," Montgomery said. “What I like to do is I like to watch where we were, especially from an athleticism standpoint, to where he is now. It’s not even close.”

As a rookie last year, TeSlaa caught six touchdown passes, but he did it on just 16 catches. This year, the Lions want him to keep finding the end zone, but to catch a lot more than just one pass a game.

Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes said during the offseason program that his goal is to be ready for Week 1, despite suffering a torn ACL in December.

With training camp just around the corner, that goal is starting to seem more and more in reach.

Mahomes reiterated his stance during an interview with Yahoo Sports Daily on Wednesday.

"That’s my goal," Mahomes said. "I've said that since the beginning, is being ready to go Week 1. I can't predict the future, and I know that it's a long process. It's not just my decision, but at the same time I'm going to give the doctors and the coaches every single opportunity I can to let me be out there Week 1.”

The Broncos being the season-opening opponent adds an extra layer of motivation for the three-time Super Bowl champion.

"I don't want to miss that game because that's the team that won the division while we were gone, and you want to be out there and ready to go with your teammates,” Mahomes said. “I'll give every single thing I can to be out there Week 1, and hopefully the doctors and the coaches give me the green light, and I'm able to go out there with my guys and compete against one of the best teams in the league."

Mahomes acknowledged that his return has been “a long process,” but feels like he’s in a good spot with training camp set to begin at the end of the month.

“[A]ll I can do is be as great as I can be every single day,” Mahomes said. “You just have to maximize that day and slowly get better and better as the year goes on.

"I'm excited to get back to training camp. I'm excited to get the guys back around. I've kind of been in the building in Kansas City by myself. Just [to] have the guys back and getting to be on the football field will get me going and get me ready for the season.”

Chiefs rookies and veterans are set to report to training camp on July 28.
