ALLEN PARK -- Cornerback Terrion Arnold is closer to returning for the Detroit Lions coming out of the bye week. And the Lions will also see the return of two depth defenders to practice this week.

Detroit Lions CB Terrion Arnold is expected to participate in practice Tuesday. Key reserves Malcolm Rodriguez and Daniel Thomas will as well.

Do the Detroit Lions play today? No, they have a bye week, meaning they are not playing a game during Week 8 of the NFL schedule.

Detroit Lions defensive coordinator Kelvin Sheppard has very close ties to the school, having played for the Tigers in college and spending one year (2020) serving as the football program’s director of player development. The former NFL linebacker has already appeared in several lists created by pundits as potential candidates to replace Kelly.

On the first day back from the bye week, Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell announced Monday the team expects cornerback Terrion Arnold (shoulder), linebacker Malcolm Rodriguez (knee) and safety Daniel Thomas (forearm) to practice this week.

Detroit will resume its quest for its first Super Bowl appearance after the bye. The Lions will play Minnesota at Ford Field and will also host the New York Giants, Green Bay, Dallas and Pittsburgh with road games remaining against Washington, Philadelphia, the Los Angeles Rams, the Vikings and Chicago.

Detroit's offense ranks third in scoring offense (30.7), fifth in yards per play (5.9) and ninth in yards per game (357.3).

Rock Ya-Sin has made an impact for the Lions on the field. Through his faith and second language, he hopes to also be impactful off of it.
