Tulloch won't be slowed by knee: Lions linebacker Stephen Tulloch said the knee tendinitis that will keep him out of OTA workouts until the end of May wouldn't have caused him to miss regular-season practices or games. Tulloch confirmed that he's received an injection to help the tendinitis heal, but he insists the condition will have no longterm effects. "The whole knee is structurally fine," Tulloch said. "(The tendinitis) is just one little spot. I just wanted to take precautions when it comes to (rehab), so I can give 100 percent during the regular season." (Updated 05/23/2012)

Fantasy Analysis
Tulloch was one of Fantasy's top linebackers last season with 111 total tackles, three sacks, five passes defensed and two interceptions. That's pretty darn good. Tack on that he's had at least 110 tackles in each of his last three seasons and that he's never missed an NFL game, and Tulloch stands out as a quality option. He'll be well worth a mid-round pick in drafts. (Updated 05/23/2012).
Stephen Tulloch should continue to be a fantastic Fantasy linebacker after posting over 110 total tackles for the third straight season. Tulloch also had a career-best three sacks and two interceptions along with a second-best five passes defensed. Tulloch is the perfect under-the-radar Fantasy player and should be considered a low-end No. 1 Fantasy LB worth a mid-round choice. (Updated 4/23/12)
