Skipper

Skipper spent the 2023 season with the Lions, previously spending two different stints with the team earlier in his career as well. He started last season on the practice squad and was promoted to the active roster later in the season. Skipper is perhaps best known for a controversial illegal touching call in Week 17, where he reported in as eligible, but a successful two-point conversion and potential win was called back. Skipper will return to the Lions for 2024 as offensive line depth.

Skipper was on the roster bubble as a fourth tackle before the injury. It’s not clear how serious the injury is yet, although it’s never a good sign when a player gets carted off. If he’s okay and makes the roster, he’d be a depth piece up front for Detroit.
