BREAKING NEWS : Lions place Ennis Rakestraw Jr. on IR, activate Emmanuel Moseley

Ennis Rakestraw Placed on IR, Emmanuel Moseley Activated

The Detroit Lions announced some roster moves on Saturday, as rookie cornerback Ennis Rakestraw Jr. has been placed on injured reserve and fellow cornerback Emmanuel Moseley has been activated.

Rakestraw was ruled out of Friday’s practice and ahead of Sunday’s game against the Indianapolis Colts with a hamstring injury.

Moseley will make his 2024 Lions debut this weekend as he has fully pectoral tear.

The cornerback signed with Detroit during the 2023 free agency period after spending five seasons with the San Francisco 49ers. The 28-year-old appeared in one game for the Lions last season before suffering a second ACL injury in as many years.

Moseley and Amik Robertson were competing for a starting role during training camp when Moseley tore his pectoral during joint practices with the New York Giants.

It couldn’t come at a better time for Detroit, as they announced earlier on Saturday that rookie cornerback Terrion Arnold has been ruled out against the Colts with a hamstring injury.

The team also announced it has elevated linebacker David Long from the practice squad to the active/inactive list.

The Lions and Colts kickoff at noon CT. from Lucas Oil Stadium on Sunday.
