There was finally some good news on the wide receiver health front in Detroit. On Saturday, the Lions activated erstwhile starting WR DJ Chark from injured reserve.
Chark has been sidelined since Week 3 with an ankle injury. It was an aggravation of a previous injury that kept Chark out of over 10 games for the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2021 as well.
With Josh Reynolds not making the trip with the team to New York for Sunday’s game against the Giants, it’s a great time for Chark to return. The Lions started his 21-day activation clock last week and Chark practiced all week without any setbacks.
In other Saturday roster moves, the Lions waived safety Juju Hughes and promoted WR Stanley Berryhill from the practice squad to the active roster for Week 11. Berryhill was waived from the active roster after Week 9 but quickly returned on the practice squad.
