It’s been an arduous two years for Detroit Lions Levi Onwuzurike. Injured during his rookie season, Onwuzurike re-injured his back during 2022 training camp, and despite his initial diagnosis being optimistic, eventually, he underwent back surgery in October in an attempt to correct the issue.
Onwuzurike has been taking part in the Lions’ voluntary workouts during the spring of 2023, is making some positive steps towards returning to the field, and began running on grass last week during the first few practices of OTAs.
“I would say he’s probably right on schedule for what we thought,” Campbell said at his Thursday morning press conference.
