The Lions made a series of roster moves on Tuesday, confirming an earlier report of starting nickel corner Justin Coleman being placed on injured reserve.
Coleman injured his hamstring during the Week 1 loss to the Chicago Bears, and appears to be on an extended healing path as his stint on IR will keep him out for at least the next three weeks.
On the practice squad, the Lions released defensive end Jonathan Wynn and signed defensive end/pass-rushing outside linebacker Kareem Martin.
Martin was drafted by the Cardinals in the third round of the 2014 draft, and after his rookie contract expired he joined the Giants on a 3-year deal.
After missing a majority of 2019 on injured reserve with a knee injury, the Giants released him this past offseason in a cap saving move
