Lions Clear Two, Eyes on Practice Squad | Detroit Lions News

The Detroit Lions waived injured running back Jabari Small and backup center Seth McLaughlin to open roster spots, possibly eyeing a return to the practice squad once they’re healthy. With Tom Kennedy a top candidate to fill one spot—especially as a punt returner—GM Brad Holmes suggests the receiver group may expand. The second spot could go to defensive players like Nick Whiteside or linebackers like Joe Bachie, depending on rookie Jimmy Rolder’s readiness. While waivers must be cleared, the team might also look outside for new talent, as seen with recent addition Elijah Klein.
