It looks like the Detroit Lions roster for the opening week of the 2011 season is set. After trimming down their roster to 53 players on Saturday and doing some fine-tuning on Sunday, the Lions appear to have finalized their squad for Week 1. It's always possible a trade or another move could happen, but as of early Monday morning, the Lions roster looks like this:
|
QB Matthew Stafford RB Jahvid Best WR Calvin Johnson TE Brandon Pettigrew OT Jeff Backus OG Rob Sims C Dominic Raiola |
DE Kyle Vanden Bosch DT Ndamukong Suh LB DeAndre Levy CB Eric Wright S Louis Delmas K Jason Hanson P Ryan Donahue LS Don Muhlbach |
Note: Although the Lions continue to list Stefan Logan as a wide receiver, I am listing him as a running back. He is more of a specialist than anything and obviously doesn't play just one position, but he is certainly more of a running back than a wide receiver.
