Lions | Riley Reiff ready for starting task

Detroit Lions OT Riley Reiff said he is ready to start at left tackle in Week 12 if OT Jeff Backus (hamstring) is unable to go. "I'm ready to go," Reiff said. "Any time you get on the field, you gain a little bit more knowledge, a little more experience." Backus did not participate in practice Tuesday, Nov. 20, and his status for the game is in serious doubt.
