Lions shuffle up the practice squad coming out of the bye week

The Detroit Lions made some roster changes to the practice squad coming out of the bye week. Two new players have signed on, while the Lions released two current members of the practice squad.

Detroit added EDGE Al-Quadin Muhammad and LB Cam Gill to the practice squad on Monday.

Muhammad is a familiar face for Dan Campbell and Aaron Glenn from their Saints days. He was a 6th-round pick by New Orleans in 2017, though he bounced around several NFL teams since. He was most recently on the summer roster of the Dallas Cowboys, whom the Lions face this week.

Gill fits more as a SAM LB type. The 26-year-old has played three seasons with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and also spent time with the Carolina Panthers.

To make room, the Lions said goodbye to safety Erick Hallett and kicker Matthew McCrane from the practice squad. Neither player had been elevated during the season and both joined Detroit after the season started following preseason action on other teams.
