After over a week of training camp in Allen Park, the Detroit Lions have had a few players suffer some minor dings. Friday’s practice session saw the Lions scale back the intensity after a very physical Thursday, and several players took the day off to tend to the accumulating aches and pains.
Among those taking the day off for rest purposes:
- LT Taylor Decker
- RB D’Andre Swift
- EDGE Julian Okwara
- DT Levi Onwuzurike
- OL Ryan McCollum
Cornerback Jeff Okudah was spied doing positional drill work but sat out full team activities.
Wide receiver Quintez Cephus remains idle since suffering a knee injury earlier in the week. Coach Dan Campbell indicated it was not a serious injury, but the third-year wideout has not been back on the field.
Safety C.J. Moore passed his physical on Thursday, and the Lions activated No. 38 off the non-football injury list (NFI) prior to Friday’s practice. Moore is competing for a bigger role on the defense and remains one of the team’s staples on special teams units.
