Detroit Lions rookie wide receiver Ryan Broyles may be making a surprise appearance in the team's second preseason game Friday night according to a message from his wife Mary Beth on the popular social networking site Twitter.

Shortly after 11 a.m., Mary Beth tweeted, "Walking around Baltimore enjoying this beautiful day! Get to be with my family & watch @RyanBroyles play his first NFL game ever!"

Broyles, the one who plays for the Lions, has been in and out of practice as he continues to recover from an ACL tear he suffered in November while playing for the University of Oklahoma.

If Broyles knew he was playing in Friday's game after sitting out on Wednesday, he certainly didn't tip his hand in the locker room following practice.

"I think that would be good (to play in the preseason), but in college we never had preseason, you just go out there and play," Broyles said. "I feel like I'm prepared enough, I've been practicing with these NFL guys."
