Entering Week 1 of the regular season, the Detroit Lions were a healthy group, with only cornerback Emmanuel Moseley practicing in a limited fashion. On Tuesday, another starter was downgraded on the injury report after unexpectedly missing practice.
No practice on Tuesday
- C Frank Ragnow (toe/rest)
After getting in a full practice on Monday, Pro Bowl starting center Frank Ragnow was not at practice on Tuesday. Why he was downgraded for practice is a bit of an unknown, but it is worth pointing out that Ragnow has been dealing with a toe injury for two seasons now, and the Lions have made a routine of limiting his practice reps in order to keep him available for games.
