Lions' Josh Paschal: Looks good for Week 17
Paschal (hand) was not listed on the Lions' injury report Tuesday, Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com reports.
Paschal was forced out of Sunday's win at Minnesota early with a hand injury, but it doesn't look like the issue will force him to miss any extended time. He figures to resume a rotational role on Detroit's defensive line Saturday.

Lions' Josh Paschal: Two sacks during rookie season
Paschal recorded 16 tackles and two sacks over 10 games in 2022.
While a sports hernia injury delayed the debut of the second-round rookie out of Kentucky, Paschal handled over 81 percent of the defensive snaps in each of his first three career games only to suffer a knee injury in Week 10. After returning in Week 13 -- one week after James Houston burst onto the scene -- Paschal topped 28 percent of the defensive snaps only once, though he did flash his upside during with a two-sack performance in Week 16 against the Panthers. It's not clear how the edge rotation will look in 2023, but Paschal figures to be a key piece of an improving Detroit defensive front one way or the other.
