Lions Back in Shape, Injuries Still Loom | Detroit Lions News

Detroit Lions are trending up as nearly the entire roster hits the practice field, signaling a healthier squad heading into the regular season—with key secondary players like Christian Izien and Thomas Harper back in action. Still sidelined are safeties Kerby Joseph and Brian Branch, both on PUP but potentially eligible to return after just two games if cleared. Joseph is now ramping up after stepping away for personal reasons, while rookie linebacker Jimmy Rolder rejoins practice after a leg injury. But don’t get too optimistic: several key players remain on IR—including Damone Clark, Kendrick Law, and Payton Turner (season-ending), plus Cade Mays and Isiah Pacheco (with return possibilities). The full picture will emerge Wednesday’s official injury report. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
