The Detroit Lions have spent the last couple weeks making changes to the bottom of their roster. By that, I mean that they have released guys who were really nothing more than camp bodies and mainly replaced them with, well, guys who will likely end up being nothing more than camp bodies. It's all part of the process of getting things ready for training camp, which is just a couple months away.
For now, the Lions have 90 players on their roster after making several moves on Tuesday. It's a given that additional changes will be made in the coming weeks and months, but here's what the Lions' roster looks like as of Wednesday morning:
QB Matthew Stafford QB Shaun Hill QB Kellen Moore QB Alex Carder QB Thaddeus Lewis RB Reggie Bush RB Mikel Leshoure RB Joique Bell RB Theo Riddick RB Steven Miller RB Jahvid Best FB Shaun Chapas WR Calvin Johnson WR Nate Burleson WR Ryan Broyles WR Mike Thomas WR Corey Fuller WR Kris Durham WR Brian Robiskie WR Devin Thomas WR Troy Burrell WR Patrick Edwards WR Lance Long WR Terrence Austin WR Cody Wilson |
