Lions | Jared DeVries likely to be placed on IR

Detroit Lions DL Jared DeVries (knee) has undergone minor knee surgery and could return to the field this season, according to Tom Kowalski, of Mlive.com. However, he will likely be place on Injured Reserve. Although no decision has been made at this point, there are a couple of factors that point in that direction. One, the Lions are fairly deep at the left defensive end position. Secondly, DeVries is 34 years old and hasn't been involved in any significant football activity since 2008. DeVries suffered a tear in his Achilles' tendon early in training camp last year, had surgery and was lost for the season.
