Overview

• NFL Network reports Detroit is expected to add veteran quarterback C.J. Beathard to its practice squad following Wednesday's workout.
• Beathard, 31, has 13 career starts and last appeared in a game in 2023 after recent stints with the Jaguars and Dolphins.
• The Lions hosted Beathard and Nathan Peterman for quarterback tryouts as they rebuild depth behind Jared Goff and Kyle Allen.
• Dan Campbell said the third quarterback must be able to run the offense and process information rather than serve as a long-term project.
• Detroit also evaluated wide receivers Malik Cunningham, Jerjuan Newtown and Kendric Pryor, according to the NFL transaction wire.
