When Detroit Lions rookie punter Ryan Donahue was injured while kicking field goals at practice (in place of injured kicker Jason Hanson), the team tried out three punters, settling on Robert Malone to handle their punting duties in their game against the Chicago Bears.  With Malone punting, Bears returner Devin Hester took one 82 yards for a touchdown, and today the Lions released Malone and signed Ben Graham to fill his spot, according to Sirius/XM host Adam Caplan as reported by the Detroit Free Press.

Graham was an Australian-rules football player, and has punted in the NFL with the New York Jets, the New Orleans Saints, and the Arizona Cardinals.
