Logs full estimated practice

Reader (illness) was listed as a full practice participant on Tuesday's estimated injury report. Reader was under the weather Monday, which caused him to be listed as a DNP. However, he was able to participate in Tuesday's walkthrough without limitations and should be good to go against the Bears on Thursday. In the seven regular-season games since the Lions' Week 5 bye, Reader has logged 11 tackles (seven solo).
