Detroit Lions practice with Penei Sewell at OG in attempt to fill hole left by Hal Vaitai

The Detroit Lions are discussing several different options to replace injured right guard Halapoulivaati Vaitai in their starting lineup, including moving two first-round picks off their primary positions.

Lions coach Dan Campbell said he will use Wednesday's practice to experiment with different lineups across the offensive line. One possibility, he said, is moving right tackle Penei Sewell to guard and playing Matt Nelson at tackle. Another is moving Pro Bowl center Frank Ragnow to right guard and letting Evan Brown play center.
