Lions Set Initial Practice Squad

September 6th, 2020 at 2:58pm CST by Andrew Ortenberg

The Lions have announced their initial practice squad in a release, with Detroit adding 16 players to the unit:

G Beau Benzschawel
QB David Blough
WR Victor Bolden
S Jalen Elliott
DT Frank Herron
WR Tom Kennedy
TE Isaac Nauta
LB Anthony Pittman
S Bobby Price
P Arryn Siposs
DT Kevin Strong
CB Dee Virgin
G Kenny Wiggins
RB Jonathan Williams
LS Steve Wirtel
DE Jonathan Wynn

Blough was an undrafted rookie from Purdue last year who ended up starting five games after injuries to Matthew Stafford and Jeff Driskel. The offseason addition of Chase Daniel made Blough expendable, but he’ll serve as the third quarterback.

Wiggins has been in the league since 2012, and he has extensive starting experience. He’s started 13 games for Detroit over the past two years, and will probably be the first guy getting called up if there are offensive line injuries. Williams carried the ball 49 times for Indy last year, but he’ll have a tough time getting any snaps now that the Lions have also added Adrian Peterson.

Lions Sign 13 UDFAs

May 10th, 2019 at 10:12am CST by Zachary Links

On Friday, the Lions added 13 undrafted rookies to their roster. Here’s the full rundown:

Nate Becker, TE (Miami, Ohio)
Beau Benzschawel, G (Wisconsin)
Malik Carney, LB (UNC)
Jonathan Duhart, WR (Old Dominion)
Tre Lamar, LB (Clemson)
C.J. Moore, S (Ole Miss)
Matt Nelson, T (Iowa),
Donald Parham, TE (Stetson)
Anthony Pittman, LB (Wayne State)
Ryan Pope, T (San Diego State)
Micah St. Andrew, G (Fresno State)
Ray Smith, DT (Boston College)
Kevin Strong, DT (Texas San-Antonio)

The Lions did not select any offensive linemen in the draft, so they went ahead and inked four OLs in Benzschawel, Nelson, Pope, and St. Andrew. With that in mind, the players in this group may have decent odds of making the final cut from the 90-man roster to the final 53.
