Lions release injured WR, add safety to practice squad

USA Today

The Detroit Lions made a couple of tweaks to the bottom end of the roster on Tuesday.

Detroit released wide receiver Tre’Quan Smith from the injured reserve list. Smith was injured during the preseason and was placed on the I.R. prior to roster cutdowns. The veteran was trying to make the Lions after several injury-plagued years with the New Orleans Saints.

The Lions also tinkerer with the practice squad. Erick Hallett is back on the practice squad after being released from an earlier stint. The team had an opening, so no other move was needed.
