The Detroit Lions elevated two players who have never taken a regular season snap in a Lions uniform. Both could see action in Thursday’s matchup with the Buffalo Bills.
Rookie DE James Houston and C Ross Pierschbacher were elevated on Wednesday to help flesh out the depth chart. Houston, the team’s sixth-round pick out of Jackson State, has spent all of his rookie season on the practice squad to this point. With both Josh Paschal and Charles Harris out with injury, Houston could at least see some activity on special teams.
