Lions Expect Rookie WR Isaac TeSlaa Available for Week 1 After Minor Illness

His early role grew after Detroit traded Tim Patrick.

Overview

  • TeSlaa missed Tuesday’s practice, and Dan Campbell said it was a “little bug” with the rookie expected back in the building Wednesday.
  • Local reporting indicates TeSlaa is expected to be available for the opener against the Packers after the brief absence.
  • The third-round pick impressed in training camp and the preseason, reinforcing plans for him to contribute early.
  • Detroit dealt veteran wideout Tim Patrick to the Jaguars shortly after final cuts, a move that signaled confidence in TeSlaa.
  • Rookie guard Miles Frazier has resumed practice activity while on PUP and will be eligible to return in Week 5 against the Bengals.
