After sitting out on Thursday, tight end Tony Scheffler and safety C.C. Brown returned to practice for the Detroit Lions on Friday. Both players are expected to play Sunday versus the St. Louis Rams.
Scheffler was out with a concussion and Brown had an injury to his quadriceps.
Linebacker DeAndre Levy was not able to participate in practice due to his injured groin and ankle, however, and will not play on Sunday. (The same goes, as expected, for quarterback Matthew Stafford.)
Wide receiver Nate Burleson, dealing with a high ankle sprain, practiced for the third straight day, and is expected to play against the Rams.
