Ever wonder what happened to Glyn Milburn? With the Broncos in his first three NFL seasons, the 5'8", 171-pound scatback out of Stanford averaged 53 rushing attempts and 46 receptions, and looked like the second coming of Eric Metcalf. The Lions acquired him for a pair of draft picks before the '96 season and signed him to a three-year, $3 million deal—then relegated him exclusively to kick returns; Milburn did not handle the ball on a single play from scrimmage the entire season. This year, with Brett Perriman gone to free agency, Milburn should see significant time at wideout. "From what I've been told, I'll have a threefold role," says Milburn. "I'll return kicks, play split end and come out of the backfield. It's great just to be able to play."
