The Gazette reports a lawsuit accusing Detroit Lions DT Dan Wilkinson of misleading a developer during a failed business venture three years ago will go to trial, a federal judge in Maryland ruled Monday, March 27. A judge refused to throw out the charges against Wilkinson, which are outlined in a civil lawsuit filed more than two years ago by Capital Centre LLC. The suit alleges that Wilkinson deceived Capital Centre and is personally liable for breaching a lease to build a restaurant at the Boulevard at the Capital Centre, a 55-acre retail complex in Largo, Maryland. The suit seeks $31.5 million in damages. A publicist for the Lions said Wilkinson was training on his own and was unavailable. At issue in the case is whether Wilkinson is personally liable for any damages suffered by Capital Centre as a result of defaulting on the lease.

that's a lot of cash, even for a NFL guy.
