Report: Detroit Lions waiving former USC DT Josh Fatu The trimming of the Detroit Lions’ roster continues as the try to get their way down to 53 players before Saturday’s 4 p.m. ET deadline.The latest player to get the axe is defensive tackle Josh Fatu http://www.authenticsdetroitlions.com/cheap-glover-quin-jersey , per ESPN:Fatu joined the Lions as an undrafted free agent out of USC back, signing back on May 11. As a two-year player for the Trojans, Fatu amassed 55 tackles and 7.0 sacks in his USC career.But as a Detroit Lion, Fatu never emerged from the bottom of the Lions’ depth chart. He was put in a tough position Youth Ricky Wagner Jersey , considering the Lions added Sylvester Williams and Ricky Jean Francois this offseason. That left little opportunity for Fatu, or any other interior defensive lineman, to crack the final 53-man roster. But as Rothstein suggests, if the Lions saw potential in Fatu http://www.lionsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-t.j.-lang-jersey , they could easily bring him back on the practice squad should he clear waivers.Catch up with all of the Lions’ cuts with our 2018 tracker. The Detroit Lions injury report is slimmed down this week. Running back Theo Riddick, who missed the Dolphins game with a knee injury, is the only player sitting out of practice for Detroit Thursday. The relatively clean bill of health the team has at the moment is something they will be hoping to sustain heading into this weekend’s pivotal matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. What looked like a scary injury report on Wednesday trimmed down on Thursday. Wide receiver Golden Tate and running back Ameer Abdullah were both full participants on offense Thursday after being limited a day before with ankle injuries. All-pro cornerback Darius Slay was a full participant on defense after being limited Wednesday with a toe injury. Tate and Slay are two of the most important players on the roster so them potentially reaching full health will be huge for Detroit going forward. With Riddick set to miss another game this week, Abdullah reaching full health will be a great boon to the Lions as they try to replace him. Second-year linebacker Jarrad Davis missed practice Wednesday with a calf injury. He was limited in his return to action on Thursday. Davis is coming off of a career day in Miami and Detroit will hope that he remains healthy enough to keep his momentum going. Defensive end Ezekiel Ansah was limited once again as he is still recovering from the shoulder injury he suffered Week 1.Lions Thursday ReportRB Theo Riddick (knee) - No practiceDE Ezekiel Ansah (shoulder) - Limited practiceLB Jarrad Davis (calf) - Limited practiceRB Ameer Abdullah (ankle) - Full practiceWR Golden Tate (ankle) - Full practiceCB Darius Slay (toe) - Full practice
