The Washington Post reports the Washington Redskins will attend the workout being held Thursday, April 20, by George Mason basketball player Jai Lewis. He has spent four days training with Walt Cline, Velocity Sports Performance's director of athlete development, and former NFL TE Leonard Stephens. In the morning, Lewis will fill out paperwork and take written tests, including the Wonderlic. In the afternoon, he will be weighed and measured; will be tested in the 40-yard dash, vertical jump and standing broad jump; and will perform agility and position drills for tight ends and linemen.

Bill Williamson, of the Denver Post, reports Denver Broncos WR Ashley Lelie said he would like to play where he has a chance to be the No. 1 receiver, according to two NFL sources. Lelie, who is in the last year of his current contract, is unlikely to move up on the depth chart with WR Rod Smith as the No. 1 receiver. If Lelie is not traded, the 2006 season will likely be his final season with the Broncos. Lelie's agents are evaluating interest for a trade.

NFL | Police and courts: K. Hamilton[/B]

Peggy Wright, of the Daily Record, reports former New York Giants DL Keith Hamilton admitted he used excessive corporal punishment on his 12-year-old son in February by beating the boy with an electrical cord because he got a poor report card at his private school. Hamilton will avoid any time in jail for his plea to a third-degree charge of endangering the welfare of his son Feb. 1 at his home in Montville, New Jersey. He is already serving a probationary sentence in Morris County, New Jersey, for a drug offense. His plea new bargain calls for him to be sentenced in June to three additional years of probation, anger management and parenting counseling.

lelie isn't a #1 cause he kinda sucks. They tried throwing to him a million times a game in 2004 and it ended up generating a lot of ints and not very many extra catches. No good team would have him as a #1, so what he's really saying is that he wants to get paid to be a loser. I don't get the deal with WRs.

K. Hamilton is obviously not a great guy. Just more proof that being rich doesn't make you a better person or solve all your problems.

the Skins barely paid any attention to J. Lewis until a few weeks ago. Now it looks like our interest is growing (the steelers have watching J Lewis forever). I'm not sure on his speed and he doesn't jump, so i'd assume DE is his more natural position, though TEs have a much easier time getting on the field without nearly as much talent. I'm sure he'll get a couple shots in the NFL, but i'm NOT sure he'll ever be a solid contributor or even make it onto the field.
