The Lions announced the signing of 15 players to the team’s practice squad on Wednesday afternoon, leaving one spot still to be filled on the 16-man taxi squad.
I guess this means Muti is a non factor with this team. Kinda strange with the fact of two young guards starting and only Awoshika as the lone vet back up. 🤷♂️
I think the surprises are Lynn and Kennelly. Still one spot left on the practice squad and regular roster. We'll see how it develops the next 24-48 hours.
It seemed those two were favorites (from what I read) to be one of the last ones to make the team and now neither one may even be on the practice squad.
Should Lions bring Hooker back or is his unique spread offense roots and lack of development mean Lions should wish him best of luck on another team?
So who’s the emergency QB? Skipper?
Meeks will need a place to stay. Maybe at his uncle’s place?
Very happy for Meeks.
Do we really need Ronnie Bell and Adams on the squad over Nate Lynn and Ian Kennelly?!?!
I don’t think I’ve ever seen the Lions bring back all their own camp guys. Not a single “outsider”. Not even a “He was a Lion a couple years ago” guy.
Seems like the last spot is likely reserved for a 3rd string QB?
Justin the other day I think you said PS players make 22k a week. If they get elevated to a game do they get a bonus?
Vets make more. They get 1/17 veteran minimum if elevated for a game. So, yes, big pay bump.
Justin: do you think it's possible Skip was cut early to give him a chance to put feelers out about the possibility of signing to somebody else's 53?
No. The cut wasn't official until yesterday afternoon, prohibiting those conversations, technically.
Wingo might be a run stopping DE at RDE. As a back up.
I think we will get pass rush from Barnes and Nowaskie too. May be Lynn is a liability in run stops?

I think that’s about Miles Frazier not being far off.
Yeah, no Kennelly seems odd.
I'm surprised at the lack of defensive backs. Only five corners on the 53, and no true CBs here.
Yasin and Maddox
I get that, but its still pretty light on CB depth. Surprised one of Whiteside, George, Russell or Barqoo didn't make the PS.
Might sign one of them or get from someone else. One spot is remaining, right?
Yes, but they also could use a PS QB...
Yup. I forgot.

I was really hoping for Kennelly and rather shocked he didn't make the initial practice squad.

Happy to see Skipper back!
