Raymond caught all three of his targets for 37 yards while also adding a 21-yard kick return in Saturday's 45-31 NFC divisional-round playoff loss to the Commanders. Raymond reeled in his most receptions since Week 7 on Saturday, finishing fourth on the team in catches behind Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jahmyr Gibbs and Sam LaPorta. The wide receiver made his return to the field in Week 18 after missing five games with a foot injury. When healthy, Raymond provides the Lions with another field-stretcher at wide receiver and he'll enter 2025 on the final year of his contract with Detroit.

Raymond caught all three of his targets for 37 yards while also adding a 21-yard kick return in Saturday's 45-31 NFC divisional-round playoff loss to the Commanders. Raymond reeled in his most receptions since Week 7 on Saturday, finishing fourth on the team in catches behind Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jahmyr Gibbs and Sam LaPorta. The wide receiver made his return to the field in Week 18 after missing five games with a foot injury. When healthy, Raymond provides the Lions with another field-stretcher at wide receiver and he'll enter 2025 on the final year of his contract with Detroit.
Raymond caught his only target for 11 yards while also compiling 23 yards on three punt returns in Sunday night's 31-9 win over the Vikings. Raymond made his return to action after missing four games with a foot injury, producing a relatively quiet line in Detroit's dominant win. When active, the wide receiver has operated as a relatively quiet depth option behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams this year. With the regular season now officially over, Raymond will complete his 2024 campaign having produced 17 receptions for 215 yards and two touchdowns while also compiling 413 yards and a touchdown as the team's primary punt returner over 12 games. Raymond will look to be more involved on offense when Detroit returns to play in two weeks for a matchup in the NFC divisional round.
Raymond (foot) is active for Sunday night's matchup against the Vikings. Raymond will officially make his return from a four-game absence with a foot injury. The wide receiver will likely be back in his role as the team's primary punt returner while also slotting back in as a dynamic option behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams with Detroit's offense.
The Lions activated Raymond (foot) from injured reserve Saturday. Raymond was a full participant in practice this week, and while he's still listed as questionable for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Vikings, all signs point to him playing. He has been on injured reserve since late November due to a foot injury he suffered against the Colts in Week 12. Raymond's return Sunday gives the Lions another punt return option and depth at wide receiver behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams.
Raymond (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Justin Rogers of Detroit Football Network reports. Raymond practiced without limitations all week, but he'll need to be removed from injured reserve and added back to the roster in order to make his return from a foot injury that has sidelined him since Week 12. Even if Raymond gets clearance to play, he'll likely work behind Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams and Tim Patrick on Detroit's wide receiver depth chart in a game that will determine the No. 1 seed in the NFC.
Raymond (foot) remained a full participant in Thursday's practice. Raymond was designated for return from injured reserve last Thursday and has been practicing fully ever since. However, Raymond was ruled out for last Monday night's game against the 49ers and remains on the injured list for the Lions. He could have a chance to return for Sunday night's showdown with the Vikings.
Raymond (foot) was listed as a full participant on Wednesday's practice estimation. Raymond has missed the Lions' last five games due to a foot injury sustained in a Week 12 win over the Colts. However, he was designated to return from injured reserve Dec. 26 and practiced in full Wednesday, suggesting he's nearing a return to the field. Raymond must still be added to Detroit's active roster in order to play in Week 18, when the Lions face the Vikings.
Raymond (foot) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the 49ers despite being a full participant in Saturday's practice, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports. Raymond's 21-day practice window to return from injured reserve opened Tuesday, and he was a full participant in practice all week. However, he will not be activated off IR for Monday's game, and his next opportunity to play will be in Week 18 against the Vikings.
Raymond (foot), who is still on IR, was a full participant in Thursday's practice. Raymond was designated to return from injured reserve ahead of the practice session, and he wasn't held back as a full participant. That bodes well for his chance of returning to action Monday against San Francisco, though the Lions would first need to activate the 30-year-old in order for him to be eligible to suit up. Prior to landing on IR, Raymond had been contributing as a depth option at wide receiver while also handling the majority of Detroit's punt returns.
