Get to know the Detroit Lions initial 15-player practice squad

It’s been a busy few days for Detroit Lions fans trying to keep up with all the team’s roster moves. The organization traded for WR Trinity Benson, established its initial 53-man roster, claimed WR KhaDarel Hodge and K Austin Seibert off of waivers, temporarily waived a couple veterans in a corresponding move as they prep to move players to injured reserve, and established an initial 15-player practice squad.

With concerns over COVID-19 last season, the NFL made some significant changes to how teams can use the practice squad.
