See the full story · 1 sourcesThe Detroit Lions , who will conduct their first training camp practice of the year Wednesday, placed offensive lineman Christian Mahogany on the active/Non-Football Injury (NFI) list Tuesday, and defensive back Christian Izien was placed on the active/Non-Football Illness (NFI) list.
These designations are similar to that of the active/Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list, which safeties Kerby Joseph (knee) and Brian Branch (Achilles), as well as tight end Tyler Conklin (undisclosed), were placed on Sunday. All five players cannot practice until being activated, but they can be activated at any time. The one difference is PUP has to do with football-related injuries. NFI is for injuries or illnesses that occurred away from the team.
Veterans reported to Allen Park on Tuesday.
It's not immediately known what exactly Mahogany and Izien are dealing with, though Lions coach Dan Campbell will likely share injury updates regarding those two, along with Joseph, Branch and Conklin, during his news conference Wednesday.
The Lions on Tuesday also released defensive tackle Jay Tufele, a veteran who was signed in April and figured to compete for opportunties as depth behind presumed starters Alim McNeill and Tyleik Williams.
