Stafford has started to throw 2 months after surgery

The biggest question for the Lions’ offseason is the condition of Matthew Stafford’s shoulder following surgery on Jan. 21.

It appears there is good news and it’s from the young quarterback himself.

Stafford tweeted: “Just got done throwin shoulder is feeling good...stayin in athens with the boys for a few more unexpected days’’ Stafford, who played at Georgia, was in Athens, Ga., for the pro day this week.

Lions coach Jim Schwartz told reporters at the owners meetings earlier this week that he had full confidence Stafford would be ready for training camp.

Of course we don’t know when that will be.

While the players are locked out, Stafford is on his own for the rehab. But the team is able to monitor his progress even though they cannot speak to him.

Stafford’s Twitter account is @Staff_9 and is listed as a verified account.
