<blockquote><p>Lions defensive tackle Nick Fairley will have to wait a little longer to find out what, if any, punishment he’ll receive on misdemeanor marijuana possession charges.</p>
<p>Fairley was due to be arraigned on Tuesday, but the court date has been pushed back to July 31st. According to the Detroit Free Press, Fairley’s lawyer requested the delay so that he could have more time to review the case. Fairley was arrested in early April after police found marijuana during a traffic stop.</p></blockquote>

<p>The team announced the moves Tuesday after both undrafted players tried out for the team during last weekend&#8217;s rookie minicamp.</p>
<p>The 5-foot-11, 226-pound Proctor made 103 tackles in his four-year career with the Sooners. The 6-1, 193-pound Wallace had 70 receptions for 1,000-plus yards with six touchdowns last year as a senior.</p>
<p>Detroit also put running back Jerome Harrison on the reserve/non-football illness list. Harrison had surgery in October for a brain tumor, which was discovered after the Lions attempted to trade him to the Philadelphia Eagles.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Oklahoma standout receiver Ryan Broyles, who wrecked his left knee in November after setting some NCAA career records, was drafted Friday night by the Lions.</p>
<p>&#8220;We have the luxury of being able to rehab this guy very carefully and let him get healthy,&#8221; Lions general manager Martin Mayhew said. &#8220;If the guy was healthy now, he would&#8217;ve been gone.&#8221;</p>
<p>Coach Jim Schwartz said Broyles wouldn&#8217;t have to &#8220;redshirt&#8221; this season.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m glad the Detroit Lions felt I was a guy that was capable of coming back from an injury,&#8221; Broyles said.</p>
