Teammate Refers To Stafford As 'China Doll'

Detroit Free-Press - Lions linebacker Zack Follett referred to quarterback Matthew Stafford as a "china doll" in an interview on Tuesday.

Stafford has missed 19 games in his two NFL season, more than the 13 he's played in for Detroit.

Asked what he thinks of Stafford, Follett said he is "a china doll right now."

"Stafford, good guy," Follett said. "He's a china doll right now. Anytime he gets hit, he goes down. But the kid is -- hopefully, it's just patiently waiting for him, because the kid is an awesome talent. He has a tremendous arm. The throws that he makes during practice when no one can touch him, he looks like an All-American quarterback, but put him in a game, and you hit his shoulder. So hopefully, say a couple prayers, keep him healthy next year, and the Lions can do some damage in the NFC."

After his radio interview, Follett spoke with the Detroit Free-Press and said the term "china doll" was a poor choice of words.

Exactly what I was thinking. An guy calling someone a china doll, when he himself is also injured? lol Oh Zach. I just wish he was wrong..

lol at follett talking shit this dude cant stay on the field either. This is like his 2nd or 3rd neck injury so. But yes he is right about stafford at this moment. And Folletts status on the lions is in jeopardy after this comment I heard.

HEH.

Welcome to September of last year.

This is something we knew already.

Stafford breaks a leg just from the slightest thing like getting out of bed in the morning. Hes more fragile than a china doll. He's MR GLASS.
