The last week or so has been a little hectic for the Detroit Lions. We saw two big injury scares in Friday’s preseason game, but a handful of key backups returned to practice on Monday. The Lions have gone through some personnel changes at the skill positions—quarterback, running back and wide receiver—and the activation of Steve Longa could have a drastic impact on the shape of this roster.
With cut day now less than a week away, it’s time for my penultimate 53-man roster prediction.
Quarterbacks (2)
OUT: Luis Perez, Josh Johnson
Changes: None
It turns out my intuition about Tom Savage being able to return to play in time for Week 1 was right, and this now seems like a foregone conclusion.
