The Lions continue to get healthier on offense.
Defensive tackle D.J. Reader returned to practice on Thursday for the first time since injuring his shoulder in the team’s Thanksgiving win over the Bears. Reader was listed as a limited participant in practice.
Defensive end Josh Paschal (knee) returned to practice on Wednesday and he moved up to full participation on Thursday. Paschal’s last appearance was also on Thanksgiving.
Defensive lineman Levi Onwuzurike (hamstring) was limited for the second day in a row while left tackle Taylor Decker (knee) and defensive lineman Alim McNeill (concussion) remained full practice participants.
Linebacker Trevor Nowaske was added to the injury report with a concussion and did not practice. He’s likely out for Sunday’s game against the Bills and the team will issue injury designations for any of their other players on Friday afternoon.
