What happened

Dan Campbell provided injury updates ahead of the Lions' first padded practice. Derrick Moore has a minor strain projected for 7-10 days. Rookie tight end Miles Kitselman and linebacker Jimmy Rolder are expected to miss more significant time. First-round tackle Blake Miller was cleared for full participation after a precautionary limit the previous day.

Fantasy impact

These are primarily defensive or depth injuries with limited standard fantasy relevance. Moore's short absence does not impact skill-position rankings. Managers in IDP leagues should note the temporary reduction in edge depth but expect Moore back before the preseason ends.
