There is a "good chance" the Detroit Lions will have their top three tight ends—Brandon Pettigrew, Eric Ebron and Joseph Fauria—available Sunday when they visit the Arizona Cardinals, according to Josh Katzenstein of the Detroit News.

It would be the first game all three are available for the Lions since Week 3. 

Pettigrew missed Detroit's game against the Atlanta Falcons in London on Oct. 26 due to a foot injury. He was active for last week's game against the Miami Dolphins, but did not record a reception. He’s caught nine passes this season for 68 yards.

Ebron, the No. 10 overall pick by the Lions in May's draft, has missed the last three games with a hamstring injury. He has 10 receptions for 103 yards and a touchdown this season.

Fauria hasn’t played since Sept. 21 after spraining his ankle at home. In the three games he played this season, he had three catches for 49 yards.

The Lions (7-2) play the Cardinals (8-1) in Arizona on Sunday.
