Participates in training camp
Dorsey (lower leg) is seemingly healthy once again, Nolan Bianchi of the Lions' official site reports. Dorsey has recovered from a lower leg injury suffered last month. The 26-year-old should serve as Detroit's starting kick returner and could also add value as a depth defensive back.
Sustains leg injury
Dorsey was carted to the locker room with a lower leg injury just as Wednesday's practice ended, Kyle Meinke of MLive.com reports. Dorsey signed with Detroit last offseason and won the team's starting kick returner duties, tallying 244 return yards in 2023. The 26-year-old cornerback was slated to compete for a depth role in the Lions' secondary as the offseason progressed, but that opportunity could be in jeopardy after Dorsey was carted off the field Wednesday.
Back with Detroit
The Lions re-signed Dorsey on Thursday. Detroit opted not to tender Dorsey as an exclusive rights free agent a couple weeks back, but the two sides were able to come to a compromise to get him back in the fold. Dorsey saw most of his action on special teams last season.
Allowed to hit free agency
The Lions will not tender exclusive rights free agent Dorsey, allowing him to reach unrestricted free agency, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports. Signed to Detroit's practice squad in December of 2022, Dorsey made the Lions' roster in 2023, appearing in 13 games for the NFC North champs. He played just 80 defensive snaps, seeing most of his work on special teams, finishing with 11 tackles (seven solo) and 12 kickoff returns for 244 scoreless yards.
