The Detroit Lions are always continuing to work their way through injuries on their roster and have moved practice squad kicker Aldrick Rosas to the practice squad/injured list and signed kicker Dominik Eberle in a corresponding move.
After Austin Seibert won the training camp kicking battle over Riley Patterson—who was subsequently claimed by the Jacksonville Jaguars—the Lions signed Rosas to the practice squad for depth and insurance purposes.
Seibert is currently dealing with a groin injury and Rosas was being looked at as a possible game day elevation if Seibert’s injury worsened. But fortunately, after a full practice on Thursday, it appears Seibert is on track to play in Week 1 versus the Philadelphia Eagles.
