Lions Sign Veteran CB Tre Flowers to Practice Squad After Injuries Hit Secondary

The move reinforces depth after injuries sidelined D.J. Reed, leaving Terrion Arnold uncertain for Week 5.

Overview

  • Aaron Wilson reported the Lions are adding Tre Flowers to the practice squad, a move multiple outlets echoed.
  • Flowers is expected to join when practice resumes Wednesday, positioning him for potential game-day elevations.
  • Coach Dan Campbell said D.J. Reed will be down for a while, is out against the Bengals, and could land on injured reserve, though the injury is not season-ending.
  • Terrion Arnold is dealing with a shoulder issue that could cost him this week, with an expectation he returns soon thereafter.
  • The Lions are thin at outside corner on the 53-man roster, with Amik Robertson set to start outside and Rock Ya-Sin or Khalil Dorsey considered for the other spot.
