The Detroit Lions officially got two players off injured reserve Saturday afternoon, activating cornerback Mike Ford and running back Bo Scarbrough.
To clear room on the roster, the Lions released offensive lineman Kenny Wiggins and cornerback Chris Jones.
Ford and Scarbrough, who were both with the team last season, have each been sidelined since training camp with their injuries. Ford suffered an ankle injury during a practice in late August, while Scarbrough had been dealing with a rib injury since earlier that month.
Ford is entering is in his third season with the franchise, signing as an undrafted free agent out of Southeast Missouri State in 2018.
