In an expected move, the Detroit Lions have activated quarterback time Boyle from injured reserve and released nickel corner/returnman Corey Ballentine—who was just activated yesterday—in a corresponding move.
With starting quarterback Jared Goff dealing with an oblique injury and unable to practice all week, Boyle—who was practicing as part of a 21-day evaluation process—was taking starter reps in his stay.
On Friday, coach Dan Campbell said Goff was going to get on some throws in at practice, and his status would be evaluated for Sunday. Campbell planned on making a decision on if Goff was capable of playing, or if the team would turn to Boyle to start.
