Damon 'Snacks' Harrison suits up for first Lions practice; Theo Riddick out

ALLEN PARK -- Glover Quin said he'd be excited about the Snacks Harrison trade once he saw the 355-pound running back destroyer on the practice field.

A day later, he got his wish.

The Detroit Lions (3-3) made their deal for Harrison official Thursday morning, then suited him up for practice this afternoon. Harrison was wearing a blue No. 98.

It remains unclear whether Harrison is expected to play Sunday against Seattle (3-3). Coach Matt Patricia last spoke to reporters on Wednesday, before the deal was finalized, and won't take questions again until Friday morning.

An interesting wrinkle: Harrison was traded from the Giants, who haven't had their bye yet, to the Lions, who have had their bye, which means he's currently slated to play 17 games.
