Let bygones be bygones, right?

Not when it comes to the Lions and their former players. Even if they only played for the team for a few months.

Retired offensive linemanGeoff Schwartz, who signed with Detroit in 2016 before getting cut in training camp, took to Twitter Monday evening to air some grievances about his brief time in Allen Park.

Schwartz said he reported to camp onepound overweight and was fined and placed in a 'weight loss program' that required him to ride a stationary bike for 20 minutes in the morning and 20 minutes after meetings at night. This was Bob Quinn's first year as general manager.

"This 'punishment' was so stupid," Schwartz said.

According to Schwartz, he'd never been fined by other teams for reporting to camp overweight.

"If lets say, Tom Coughlin and Andy Reid wouldnt fine you for this exact situation, but the Lions would ... who is doing it wrong?" said Schwartz, who played in the NFL from 2008-2016 and now writes about the league for SB Nation.

In defense of the Lions, a couple former players said the team did nothing wrong.

T.J. Langtold Schwartz, "Take some accountability dude," then doubled down in response.

And former center Travis Swanson, who spent two seasons in Detroit during the Bob Quinn era, had this to say:

The Lions have taken tons of flak over the years, especially in regard to the current regime. A lotof it feels deserved.

But this complaint feels a little hollow.
