The Lions shuffled up their roster over the last two days with moves including a trade for tight end Tim Wright and the release of wide receiver Ryan Broyles.
The other moves don’t involve such familiar names, but the Lions have made enough of them to reach Tuesday’s 75-man roster limit.
Cornerback Chris Owens has been placed on injured reserve. Owens played a lot for the Chiefs as a slot corner last season, but wasn’t set for quite as big a role in Detroit before the Lions ended his season. The injury is undisclosed so a settlement that allows him to find work elsewhere could be a possibility if it isn’t major.
