News

  • Full practice Thursday

    Paschal (knee) was a full participant at the Lions' practice Thursday.

    Analysis: Paschal missed the team's Week 14 win over the Packers before he opened this week as a limited participant at practice Wednesday due to a knee injury. His full practice Thursday eliminates any concern over his chances to play Sunday versus the Bills. Paschal will likely return to his starting role at defensive end against Buffalo.

  • Limited to begin Week 15 prep

    Paschal (knee) was limited in Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: Paschal hurt his knee Week 13 against Chicago, and he missed last Thursday's win over the Packers. However, he's trending in a better direction this week by opening with a limited practice, as he was unable to take the field at all in the lead-up to the victory over the Packers. In Paschal's absence Week 14, Patrick O'Connor logged a season-high 82 percent of the Lions' defensive snaps.

  • Sidelined for Week 14

    Paschal (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday night's matchup against the Packers, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

    Analysis: Paschal didn't practice all week after suffering a knee injury in Detroit's Thanksgiving Day win over the Bears, so it's no surprise he won't be active for Week 14. The Lions could struggle rushing the passer Thursday night, with both Paschal and Aidan Hutchinson (tibia/fibula) sidelined. Patrick O'Connor and Za'Darius Smith are now expected to serve as Detroit's primary edge-rushing duo.

  • Listed as DNP on Monday

    Paschal (knee) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's practice report, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

    Analysis: Despite Monday's DNP, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN reported that the knee injury Paschal sustained in Detroit's Week 13 win over the Bears isn't believed to be serious. The Lions are already thin at edge rusher, with Aidan Hutchinson (tibia/fibula) sidelined for the remainder of the regular-season. Paschal is likely in jeopardy of missing Detroit's divisional matchup against the Packers on Thursday night, even if he manages to upgrade to limited practice participation Tuesday or Wednesday.

  • Injury not deemed serious

    The knee injury Paschal suffered in Thursday's 23-20 win over the Bears isn't believed to be serious, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Paschal will require some rehab for the knee injury, but it isn't believed to be season-ending. The Lions will play on Thursday again in Week 14 against the Packers, and Paschal's level of practice participation leading up to that game will help determine his chances of suiting up.

  • Ruled out Thursday

    Paschal (knee) won't return to Thursday's game versus the Bears.

    Analysis: Paschal injured his knee in the second quarter and was ruled out as the teams came out of halftime. Through 10 games this season, he's posted 19 tackles, including 2.0 sacks.

  • Hurts knee, iffy to return Thursday

    Paschal suffered a knee injury in Thursday's Thanksgiving Day game against Chicago and has been deemed questionable to return.

    Analysis: Paschal's injury came on a Bears pass attempt in the second quarter. The defensive end was initially looked at on the sideline before heading to the locker room. Patrick O'Connor could see more defensive snaps for as long as Paschal remains off the field.

  • Past illness

    Paschal (illness) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: Paschal had missed the Lions' last two games due to an illness, but Wednesday's full practice suggests he's past the issue. The third-year defensive end from Kentucky has recorded nine total tackles through six appearances this season. He's expected to start opposite recent acquisition Za'Darius Smith as part of the Lions' top edge-rushing duo in Week 10, when the team travels to Houston

  • Won't play in Week 9

    Head coach Dan Campbell told reporters Friday that Paschal (illness) won't play in Sunday's matchup against the Packers, Kyle Meinke of MLive.com reports.

    Analysis: Campbell noted that Paschal is expected to return to practice next week; however, he's now in line to miss his second consecutive game with an illness. With Paschal sidelined in Week 9, the Lions' defensive end room will consist of just James Houston, Patrick O'Connor and Isaiah Thomas.

  • Logs DNP

    Paschal (illness) did not practice Wednesday, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

    Analysis: Paschal missed the Lions' win over the Titans on Sunday due to illness, and also missed practice each day leading up to the game. It's worth noting he previously told Twentyman he would be ready for Week 9 against the Packers, although according to head coach Dan Campbell, the Kentucky product's status for the matchup is still to be determined.

  • Won't play in Week 8

    Paschal (illness) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Titans, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports.

    Analysis: Paschal didn't practice throughout the week due to an illness, so it's no surprise he won't suit up Sunday. The 24-year-old defensive end then told reporters Friday that he'll return for the Lions' Week 9 matchup against the Packers, per Tim Twentyman of the team's official site. Expect Isaac Ukwu and Patrick O'Connor to see increased work with Detroit's first-team defense in Paschal's stead.

  • Looks good for Week 17

    Paschal (hand) was not listed on the Lions' injury report Tuesday, Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Paschal was forced out of Sunday's win at Minnesota early with a hand injury, but it doesn't look like the issue will force him to miss any extended time. He figures to resume a rotational role on Detroit's defensive line Saturday.

  • Exits game with hand injury

    Paschal (hand) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Vikings.

    Analysis: Paschal did not record a stat before exiting Sunday's game. He's operated as the backup defensive end behind Aidan Hutchinson and John Cominsky, and in Paschal's absence, Romeo Okwara figures to fill in that role.

  • Cleared to play Sunday

    Paschal (knee) is active for Sunday's matchup against the Ravens.

    Analysis: Paschal, a 2022 second-round pick, suffered a knee injury during the Lions' preseason opener against the Chiefs and was placed on injured reserve. He was designated to return from IR during Week 6 prep and returned to practice, but he wasn't activated until Saturday of Week 7. As a rookie, Paschal recorded 10 tackles, including two sacks, across 10 appearances.

  • Returns from IR

    Paschal (knee) was activated from injured reserve Saturday.

    Analysis: The 2022 second-round pick out of Kentucky has a chance to appear in his first game since the Lions' Week 1 win over the Chiefs, as he's questionable for Sunday's contest at Baltimore. Throughout his rookie year, Paschal appeared in 10 games and recorded 10 total tackles, two tackles for loss and two sacks.

  • Questionable for Sunday at Ravens

    Paschal (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Baltimore, Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Paschal was designated to return from his stint on the injured reserve list a week ago, but it's still not clear he's ready to come back going into the weekend. If he's activated for Week 7, he'll step back into a rotational role on the edge for Detroit.

  • Designated to return

    Paschal (knee) was designated to return from injured reserve Friday, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The 23-year-old was placed on injured reserve after Detroit's Week 1 win over Kansas City, and he was able to return to limited participation in practice Friday. His 21-day window to be activated to the Lions' active roster has opened, but he won't be able to suit up for this Sunday's game against Tampa Bay.

  • Placed on IR

    Paschal (knee) was placed on injured reserve Saturday.

    Analysis: Paschal will be forced to miss at least the next four contests while nursing a knee injury he suffered this week. The defensive end recorded three tackles while playing 17 defensive snaps in Week 1 versus the Chiefs.

  • Ruled out

    Paschal (knee) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Seahawks.

    Analysis: Paschal missed Friday's practice with a knee injury, and he's since been ruled out for Sunday's contest. The 23-year-old recorded three total tackles, including one tackle for loss, during Detroit's Week 1 victory over Kansas City. Paschal's role as a rotational edge rusher will most likely be filled by Levi Onwuzurike against Seattle.

  • Two sacks during rookie season

    Paschal recorded 16 tackles and two sacks over 10 games in 2022.

    Analysis: While a sports hernia injury delayed the debut of the second-round rookie out of Kentucky, Paschal handled over 81 percent of the defensive snaps in each of his first three career games only to suffer a knee injury in Week 10. After returning in Week 13 -- one week after James Houston burst onto the scene -- Paschal topped 28 percent of the defensive snaps only once, though he did flash his upside during with a two-sack performance in Week 16 against the Panthers. It's not clear how the edge…read more

  • Not playing Thanksgiving

    Paschal (knee) is listed as out for Thursday's game versus Buffalo.

    Analysis: Paschal will miss his second consecutive game while dealing with a knee injury he presumably sustained in Week 10 at Chicago. With Charles Harris (groin) also out in Week 12, Austin Bryant should be in line to start opposite Aidan Hutchinson on Detroit's front four Thursday.

  • Won't play Sunday

    Paschal (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Giants, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

    Analysis: Paschal was unable to practice at all during Week 11 prep due to a knee injury he presumably picked up in Week 10. Charles Harris (groin) is also out, so John Cominsky and Julian Okwara are candidates for increased roles opposite Aidan Hutchinson along Detroit's defensive line.

  • Ready for debut

    Paschal (sports hernia) was activated from the PUP list Saturday.

    Analysis: Paschal started the season on the PUP list after undergoing surgery for a sports hernia during the offseason. The rookie should make his NFL debut Sunday against the Cowboys.

  • Designated to return from PUP list

    Paschal (sports hernia) was designated to return from injured reserve and practiced Wednesday.

    Analysis: Paschal missed the first four games of his rookie campaign after suffering a sports hernia during the offseason, but the 2022 second-round pick returned to practice as soon as he was eligible, which is an encouraging sign for his availability. He'll have 21 days to be added to the active roster, but if he isn't, he'll revert back to the PUP list for the remainder of the campaign.

  • Moves to reserve/PUP list

    The Lions placed Paschal (sports hernia) on the reserve/PUP list Tuesday.

    Analysis: Detroit's 2022 second-rounder is now forced to miss the team's first four games of the regular season as he recovers from offseason sports hernia surgery. As a senior in college, Paschal earned First-team All-SEC honors for Kentucky, totaling 53 tackles, five sacks, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery. He'll have to wait until at least Week 5 against the Patriots to make his NFL debut, which appears up in the air, given Paschal hasn't taken the field since the Lions hosted rookie minicamp…read more

  • Uncertain for Week 1

    Paschal (sports hernia) likely won't be ready for the start of the regular season, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports.

    Analysis: Paschal underwent sports hernia surgery this spring to address an injury that kept him from playing in Kentucky's bowl game last year. If he is not activated from the preseason PUP list ahead of Week 1, the second-round rookie will presumably miss at least the first four games of 2022 on the regular-season PUP list.

  • Underwent sports hernia surgery

    Head coach Dan Campbell revealed Wednesday that Paschal underwent sports hernia surgery this offseason and there is no timetable for the rookie to be removed from the PUP list, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports.

    Analysis: It is not clear when Paschal underwent surgery, but the second-round draft pick participated in rookie minicamp in May and was a nonparticipant in practices open to the media since then. With Romeo Okwara (Achilles) also on the mend, Paschal's continued absence opens the door for Austin Bryant to see first-team snaps behind Charles Harris and Aidan Hutchinson.

  • Lands on PUP list

    Paschal (lower body) was placed on the active/PUP list Sunday.

    Analysis: Paschal sat out OTAs in June with the injury, but details of its significance are unknown. Selected in the second round of the 2022 Draft, he's expected to be a significant piece of the Lions' defensive line rotation, especially with Romeo Okwara (Achilles) not expected to be ready once the season begins.

  • Not practicing

    Paschal has been sitting out the Lions' OTAs thus far due to a lower-body injury, Kyle Meinke of MLive.com reports.

    Analysis: Head coach Dan Campbell said the team is "just trying to be smart" by holding Paschal out, which suggests his absence in drills may be precautionary more than anything. Once he returns to action, the second-round rookie out of Kentucky will compete for reps at defensive end behind Romeo Okwara and Aidan Hutchinson.
