C.J. Gardner-Johnson (knee) returns to Lions practice, Antoine Green out

Five days after being carted off the field with a knee injury, C.J. Gardner-Johnson is back practicing for the Detroit Lions.

Lions coach Dan Campbell said Gardner-Johnson will be a limited participant in Saturday's training camp practice, the Lions' first open to the general public.

Gardner-Johnson suffered a knee injury in team drills Monday, in the Lions' second practice of summer. He couldn't put any pressure on his right leg as trainers helped him onto a medical cart, but tests showed no structural damage in his knee.

Gardner-Johnson did some light running and shuffling with the rest of the Lions' rehab group during Friday's practice and is scheduled to take part in individual drills Saturday, Campbell said.
