Jalen Reeves-Maybin is back on the Lions active roster. The Lions activated the veteran linebacker and special teams standout from the injured reserve list ahead of Monday night’s game against the 49ers in San Francisco.
Reeves-Maybin has been sidelined for several weeks with a neck injury. He was listed as questionable for Monday’s game after practicing for the last two weeks.
Detroit also elevated running back Jermar Jefferson and defensive tackle Chris Smith from the practice squad for the Week 17 game. It’s the second straight elevation for both players.
