Zach Miller remained sidelined until he can pass NFL protocol concussion tests
Eric Ebron had to be carted off Ford Field when he hurt his right ankle but avoided serious injury. There is no timetable yet for his return, but the Lions are tremendously thin at the position, with Brandon Pettigrew (knee) still on the PUP list and Tim Wright out for the season with a torn ACL. Matthew Mulligan and undrafted free agent Cole Wick are the Lions’ top tight ends for now.
Jordy Nelson remains listed as physically unable to perform because of an injury to his left knee. Nelson isn’t likely to be ready in time for Green Bay’s first preseason game Friday night against the Cleveland Browns.
Laquon Treadwell was drafted in the first round because of his size and physical style of play.
When cornerback Jabari Price gave Treadwell an extra shot he didn’t like, Treadwell returned fire. They went at it until Treadwell slammed Price to the ground and teammates stepped in.
