Ryan Donahue "shut it down" after trying to punt on Friday. This is why the Lions signed Robert Malone, who is expected to be the starting punter on Sunday.
- In addition to Malone, the Lions also worked out punters Matt Dodge and Glenn Pakulak on Thursday.

Jason Hanson looks as though he will play on Sunday considering no kicker has been signed. Hanson was asked about his knee injury on Thursday and said this:
"It’s terrible timing," Hanson said. "I can’t believe that it happened, and I said this to everyone at the Lions: I’m super sorry. Terrible week for this to happen, but my guilt level is pretty low, as far as I didn’t feel I was doing anything to hurt the team."
Hanson said he wasn't "out riding a four-wheeler and goofing around" when he suffered the injury. Rather, he was with his kids. He declined to give specifics on the cause of the injury, though.
