The Lions placed Moseley on the reserve/non-football illness list Saturday.
An illness has prevented Moseley from practicing all week, and it is severe enough for the 28-year-old corner to be placed on the NFI list. He'll now be forced to miss at least the next four games, which means he won't be available for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Vikings. Moseley won't play another snap for the Lions this season unless Detroit enters the postseason as the NFC's fifth seed and makes it to the Super Bowl.

Lions' Alex Anzalone: Taken off injured reserve
Rotowire
Detroit activated Anzalone (forearm) from injured reserve Saturday.
Anzalone was placed on IR on Nov. 18 after breaking his forearm during the Lions' Week 11 blowout win over the Jaguars. He returned to practice Wednesday and logged consecutive full practices to end the week. His activation off IR on Saturday indicates that he is on track to play against the Vikings on Sunday. In the nine games prior to his injury, Anzalone tallied 56 tackles (40 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and four pass defenses.

Lions' Amik Robertson: Upgraded to full Thursday
Rotowire
Robertson (calf) returned to a full practice Thursday.
Robertson logged 100 percent of the defensive snaps last Monday night against the 49ers and has become an every-down cornerback for the Lions in the two games since Carlton Davis suffered a broken jaw. Over the last two weeks, Robertson has totaled 10 tackles (seven solo), three pass breakups and one forced fumble.

Lions' Jack Campbell: Back to full practice
Rotowire
Campbell (ribs) returned to a full practice Thursday.
Campbell was limited Wednesday but appears fine for Sunday night's Week 18 clash against the Vikings after playing 100 percent of the defensive snaps last Monday night against the 49ers. Campbell has appeared in all 16 games this season, logging 125 tackles (67 solo), including five TFLs and 1.5 sacks, five pass breakups and one forced fumble. He's played 100 percent of the defensive snaps in six straight contests.

Lions' Alex Anzalone: Upgrades to full practice
Rotowire
Anzalone (forearm) practiced in full Thursday.
Anzalone remains on injured reserve but appears to be nearing a return after he was designated for return Wednesday. The Lions badly need the help on defense with the team already down linebackers Derrick Barnes (knee) and Malcolm Rodriguez (knee) ahead of Sunday night's big game against Minnesota.

Lions' Amik Robertson: Logs limited session Wednesday
Rotowire
Robertson (calf) was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's practice estimation.
Robertson played 100 percent of the Lions' defensive snaps in Monday night's win over the 49ers, recording two total tackles, one pass defended and one forced fumble. However, it now appears he sustained a calf injury in the process. If the 26-year-old's injury holds him out of the Week 18 matchup against the Vikings, Kindle Vildor will likely start opposite rookie Terrion Arnold as part of Detroit's top outside cornerback duo.

Lions' Jack Campbell: Nursing ribs injury
Rotowire
Campbell (ribs) was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's practice estimation.
Campbell appears to have picked up a ribs injury in the Lions' Week 17 win over the 49ers, despite playing 100 percent of the team's defensive snaps and recording nine total tackles. His practice participation Thursday and Friday will likely provide the best indication of whether he can play through his ribs issue in the Week 18 matchup against the Vikings. The second-year linebacker from Iowa may see a lighter workload if he suits up Sunday, especially with the possibility of Alex Anzalone (forearm) returning from injured reserve.

Lions' Alex Anzalone: Could return for Week 18
Rotowire
Anzalone (forearm) was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday.
Anzalone was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's practice estimation, and Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that there's a realistic chance for the 30-year-old to make his return in the Lions' Week 18 matchup against the Vikings, a game that will decide the No. 1 seed in the NFC. Anzalone's practice participation Thursday and Friday will likely offer the best insight into whether he can suit up Sunday. He would be a significant addition to a Detroit linebacker corps already without Derrick Barnes (knee) and Malcolm Rodriguez (knee).

Lions' Brian Branch: Notches sack in win
Rotowire
Branch recorded seven total tackles (four solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Monday night's 40-34 win over the 49ers.
Branch was able to secure his first sack of the season, bringing down Brock Purdy in the fourth quarter. Additionally, the 23-year-old produced at least seven tackles for the third game in a row and seventh time overall in 2024. On the year, Branch has now compiled 103 total tackles (76 solo), including 1.0 sacks, a forced fumble and 15 passes defensed, including four interceptions, over 15 games.

Lions' Kerby Joseph: Two interceptions in Week 17
Rotowire
Joseph recorded six total tackles (five solo) and two interceptions in Monday night's 40-34 win over San Francisco.
Joseph was able snap his five-game streak without an interception, getting back on track in a big way versus the 49ers. The safety picked off Brock Purdy in third quarter before later adding another interception in the fourth quarter, both of which were passes intended for wide receiver Ricky Pearsall across the middle of the field. Joseph is now up to an NFL-leading nine interceptions on the season, one of which he returned for a touchdown. On the year, the safety has also compiled 77 total tackles (54 solo) while producing 12 passes defensed, including the nine interceptions, over 16 games.

Lions' Jalen Reeves-Maybin: Good to go against San Francisco
Rotowire
Reeves-Maybin (neck) is active for Monday night's game against the 49ers.
Reeves-Maybin had missed the Lions' last seven games due to a neck injury, but he was activated off IR on Monday and will play. Prior to his injury, Reeves-Maybin logged 11 tackles (seven solo) and one forced fumble across eight regular-season games.

Lions' Jalen Reeves-Maybin: Activated off IR
Rotowire
The Lions activated Reeves-Maybin (neck) from injured reserve Monday.
Reeves-Maybin remains questionable for Monday's road matchup with the 49ers, but he'll have a chance to return from a seven-game absence due to a neck injury he suffered against the Packers in Week 9. The 2017 fourth-round pick would provide rotational depth at linebacker behind starters Trevor Nowaske, Jack Campbell and Ezekiel Turner.

Kwon Alexander: Sticking around in Detroit
Rotowire
The Lions signed Alexander to the practice squad Saturday.
Alexander was waived by the Lions on Thursday after being a healthy scratch in Detroit's Week 16 win over Chicago. He'll remain with the Lions on the practice squad and will be eligible to be elevated to the active roster. Alexander has played in five regular-season games between the Broncos and Lions and has accumulated 12 tackles (four solo), one forced fumble and one fumble recovery.

Lions' Jalen Reeves-Maybin: Questionable for Week 17
Rotowire
Reeves-Maybin (neck) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the 49ers after logging a full practice Saturday, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.
Reeves-Maybin has been on injured reserve since early November due to a neck injury he suffered in Week 9 against the Packers. He was a full participant all week, but it remains to be seen whether he'll be activated off IR ahead of Monday night's game. In the seven games prior to his injury, Reeves-Maybin accumulated nine tackles (six solo) and one forced fumble.

Lions' Terrion Arnold: Cleared to play against 49ers
Rotowire
Arnold (illness) does not carry an injury designation into Monday's game against the 49ers, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.
Arnold has been under the weather this week, but he looks to be past the illness, as he was able to practice in full Saturday. The rookie first-round pick has logged 52 tackles (40 solo), nine pass defenses and one fumble recovery across 14 regular-season games.

Lions' Terrion Arnold: Gets in limited practice
Rotowire
Arnold (illness) returned to a limited practice Friday.
Arnold logged a DNP on Wednesday, so he's trending in the right direction ahead of Monday night's game against the 49ers. The Lions will release their final injury report Saturday. Detroit can't afford to be down any more key contributors on defense following the rash of injuries on that side of the ball in recent weeks.

Lions' Terrion Arnold: Misses practice due to illness
Rotowire
Arnold (illness) was a non-participant in Thursday's practice.
The fact that Arnold was afflicted with the illness early in the week likely gives him a better chance of suiting up Monday against San Francisco than if he had fallen ill closer to kickoff. Nonetheless, it's worth monitoring his practice status Friday and Saturday to get a better idea about his likelihood of being able to suit up against the 49ers. If Arnold can't play Monday, Kindle Vildor could be in line for a significant amount of defensive snaps.

Kwon Alexander: Waived by Detroit
Rotowire
The Lions waived Alexander on Thursday, Kory Woods of MLive.com reports.
Detroit signed Alexander off Denver's practice squad in late November, and the veteran linebacker logged 28 total defensive snaps over two games with the club. However, he was a healthy scratch last Sunday against Chicago, and his services have become less needed with Trevor Nowaske recently returning from a one-game absence and with both Jalen Reeves-Maybin (neck) and Alex Anzalone (forearm) potentially nearing returns. Woods notes that the Lions hope to add Alexander to their practice squad if he clears waivers.

DaRon Gilbert: Signed to Lions' practice squad
Rotowire
Detroit signed Gilbert (undisclosed) to the practice squad Thursday.
Gilbert attempted to make the Lions' 53-man roster during training camp, but he was let go with an injury settlement in mid-August due to an undisclosed issue. It appears he's fully recovered from his injury and will be on the Lions' scout team as a reserve linebacker.

Titans' David Long: Claimed by Tennessee
Rotowire
The Titans claimed Long off waivers Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
Long was waived by the Lions on Tuesday but will join his third team of the season after having spent time with the Dolphins as well. He should provide much-needed help at linebacker for the Titans who have been decimated by injuries at the position.
