Moseley suffered a pectoral injury a few weeks ago during the early stages of training camp. This after Moseley was returning from a second straight ACL tear suffered last season.
Moseley will be one of the two Lions designated for return from injured reserve before the initial 53-man roster is set, a new rule for this season. Previously, players had to be a part of the initial 53 before heading to IR to be eligible for return. Defensive end John Cominsky will be the other.
Moseley appeared in one game for the Lions in 2023, his first season in Detroit, before tearing his ACL. Before coming to Detroit, Moseley played five seasons in San Francisco, playing in 45 games with 33 starts.
