Quote:I hope not. More likely it's just a little camp insurance behind Miller and Jones considering they will need a 3rd string for preseason. In other words, their NT position now features... 1. Roy M III 2. Abry and 3. Stefan ...I don't expect him to actually make the final roster.

 

  Stefan Charles was the Lions # 5 DT when the regular season opened.  IMO, he barely made the roster. 

 

  During the regular season,  4 pure DTs were kept on the Game Day roster the vast majority of games,  if not all of the games. 

 

  When all 5 DTs were relatively healthy,   Haloti Ngata and A'Shawn Robinson were always active.   How Tyrunn Walker,  Khyri Thornton, and Stefan Charles did in the week leading up to a given game determined which two that the coaches decided would be on the 46 man Game Day roster.   Thornton was a RFA but signed 2 year contract a few days ago.  Walker remains an UFA.
