On Saturday, the Detroit Lions placed cornerback Emmanuel Moseley and running back Zonovan Knight on injured reserve, freeing up two spots on their 53-man roster. To fill these openings, the Lions activated cornerback/kick returner Khalil Dorsey from injured reserve, and signed veteran offensive lineman Dan Skipper off the practice squad.
Dorsey opened the season as a starter in all phases of the Lions’ special teams, including kick returner duties and cornerback depth on defense. In Week 1 against the Kansas City Chiefs, Dorsey had three tackles and one kick return for 39 yards on 24 special teams snaps.
