Lions practice squad signing signals bad news for Sam LaPorta's SNF availability

Coming off their Week 10 victory against the Washington Commanders, the Lions made quick work to add to their practice squad.

The Lions worked out tight ends Anthony Firkser and Thomas Gordon Tuesday morning, opting to sign the more established Firsker. Gordon is a 2025 UDFA who spent the spring with the San Antonio Brahmas of the UFL en route to a contract with the Chicago Bears during training camp, before being released.

Detroit is still seeking stability on its injury report, with Terrion Arnold and Kerby Joseph the most notable injuries the team is monitoring headed into Week 11 against the Philadelphia Eagles.
