ALLEN PARK, Mich. (AP) Detroit Lions tight end Brandon Pettigrew has been put on the active-physically unable to perform list.

The Lions announced the move Sunday. They also put wide receiver Corey Fuller and tackle Corey Robinson on the PUP list.

Pettigrew tore his left anterior cruciate ligament late last year and finished the season with only seven catches. He's entering his eighth season with the Lions.

Pettigrew caught 83 passes for the Lions in 2011, but the former first-round draft pick has only 17 catches over the past two seasons.
