Returning to NFC North champs
Awosika re-signed with the Lions on Friday.
ANALYSIS
Awosika has been mostly a rotational player during his three seasons in Detroit, starting seven of the 36 regular-season games in which he's appeared. However, he could have the opportunity to compete for a starting role during the Lions' upcoming training camp with Kevin Zeitler signing with Tennessee in mid-March.

Not on injury report
Awosika (lower body) wasn't listed on Detroit's injury report Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Awosika left the team's Week 8 win versus the Raiders with a lower body injury but is now healthy again. The 25-year-old has started two of the past three games with Jonah Jackson (ankle) and Frank Ragnow (toe) both missing time but will likely return to the bench with both starters expected to return this week.

Exits with cramps
Awosika (lower body) is questionable to return to Monday's contest against the Raiders.
ANALYSIS
Awosika left the game in the second half due to lower body cramping and his return is now uncertain. The 25-year-old was starting at left guard and in his absence Michael Niese could see an increase in workload.

Participating in camp
Awosika (ankle) is taking part in team drills during training camp, Jeff Risdon of LionsWire reports.
ANALYSIS
Awosika closed out last season on the sidelines as he tended to an ankle injury. However, he's been active in camp and was outstanding for all but one rep Wednesday, Risdon notes. Awosika will continue working to earn a reserve role on the Lions' 53-man roster for the upcoming season.

Sitting out Week 18
Awosika (ankle) has been deemed out for Sunday's game against the Packers.
ANALYSIS
Awosika will miss his fifth consecutive game while dealing with an ankle injury, which kept him sidelined for each practice during Week 18 prep. With the Lions still playing for a chance at the playoffs Sunday, it's possible the 24-year-old could return before the wild-card round next week.

ANALYSIS

Out again Week 16

Won't face Vikings
Awosika (ankle) is out for Sunday's game against the Vikings.
