The Detroit Lions are getting some much-needed help for their beleaguered secondary, just in time for Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals.
The Lions activated three defensive backs from the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday, safety Tracy Walker and cornerbacks Ifeatu Melifonwu and Bobby Price, and reinstated cornerback A.J. Parker to the 53-man roster from injured reserve.
Walker is questionable to play with an illness, but the quartet should help a Lions secondary that had seven of its members on the reserve/COVID list this week and was down to just two healthy cornerbacks, Amani Oruwariye and Saivion Smith.
