The Detroit Lions are traveling to Chicago for a Week 4 game against the Bears, but their kicker Austin Seibert remains on the reserve/COVID-19 list, which has prompted the team to elevate kicker Ryan Santoso to the active roster as a COVID-19 replacement.
This is the second week in a row that Santoso has had to fill in for Seibert while he progresses through the NFL’s COVID-19 protocols.
Last week against the Baltimore Ravens, Santoso successfully kicked two extra points, and then nailed a 35-yard field goal with 1:08 remaining in the game, giving the Lions a one-point lead at the time.
