Chark, Hockenson, Reynolds Return to Lions Practice, St. Brown Sits Out
The Detroit Lions saw five key members of the offense return to practice on Thursday, after sitting out the team's initial practice of the week on Wednesday.
Those returning included wide receivers Josh Reynolds and DJ Chark, along with offensive linemen Evan Brown and Frank Ragnow and tight end T.J. Hockenson.
After being limited Wednesday, Matt Nelson was not spotted at the portion of practice open to the media.
Others still out of action ahead of the Patriots game included D'Andre Swift, Amon-Ra St. Brown, Quintez Cephus, Chris Board and John Cominsky.
While offensive coordinator Ben Johnson did not tip his hand regarding which receivers would be healthy Sunday, he indicated the offense is not in any way going to be complacent.
Despite being the league's top scoring offense, Johnson expressed there are still significant areas of improvement the offense can strive toward, including quarterback Jared Goff.
"I would say he, as well as everybody on the offense, we're all looking for ways to improve," Johnson told reporters. "That's me as a play-caller. That's him as a quarterback. That's our offensive line. That's across the board. So, four games in, there's plenty where he can still improve."
