EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. − Michael Brockers is back in the Detroit Lions' lineup for Sunday's game against the New York Giants for the first time since the team's Week 6 bye.
Brockers had been a healthy scratch the past month, since rookie defensive lineman Josh Paschal returned from the physically unable to perform list. Paschal suffered a knee injury in last week's win over the Chicago Bears and is inactive today.
Defensive end Charles Harris also is out with a groin injury, and Josh Reynolds (back), Chase Lucas and Matt Nelson are inactive for the Lions (3-6).
