  • Lions' Levi Onwuzurike: Past hamstring issue

    Onwuzurike (hamstring) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bills.

    Onwuzurike didn't play in the Lions' Week 14 win over the Packers after sustaining a hamstring injury the week prior. However, he upgraded from limited work Wednesday and Thursday to a full practice session Friday, indicating that he's now recovered from the issue. Expect Onwuzurike to play as one of the Lions' top rotational interior defensive linemen in Week 15.

  • Lions' Levi Onwuzurike: Returns to practice in limited fashion

    Onwuzurike (hamstring) was a limited practice participant Wednesday.

    This is a step in the right direction for Onwuzurike, who didn't practice at all last week and didn't play against Green Bay on Thursday due to a hamstring issue. His participation level in practice the rest of this week should help clarify whether he'll be able to return to the field Sunday versus Buffalo. Myles Adams logged 40 percent of Detroit's defensive snaps in his first game with the team last week since both Onwuzurike and DJ Reader (shoulder) were unable to play.

  • Lions' Levi Onwuzurike: Ruled out for Week 14

    Onwuzurike (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday night's matchup against the Packers, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

    The 26-year-old sustained a hamstring injury in the Lions' Thanksgiving Day win over the Bears and was unable to practice throughout the week. With both Onwuzurike and DJ Reader (shoulder) ruled out for Thursday night's divisional matchup, Myles Adams and Brodric Martin will likely see increased snaps with Detroit's first-team defense.

  • Lions' Levi Onwuzurike: Still nursing hamstring injury

    Onwuzurike (hamstring) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's practice report, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

    The fourth-year defensive lineman from Washington was unable to return to the Lions' Week 13 win over the Bears after sustaining a hamstring injury, so Monday's DNP listing comes as no surprise. He likely needs to upgrade to at least limited participation Tuesday or Wednesday in order to play in Thursday night's divisional matchup against the Packers.

  • Lions' Levi Onwuzurike: Won't reenter Thursday's game

    Onwuzurike (hamstring) won't return to Thursday's contest against the Bears.

    Onwuzurike remained down on the field late in the first half but was able to walk to the sideline and eventually the locker room. The Lions ruled him out shortly after halftime. With no tackles on his ledger Thursday, he's now been blanked in the box score in three straight games.
