Detroit Lions Place David Ausberry On Reserved Injured List

The Detroit Lions placed tight end David Ausberry on the injured reserve list today.  The move is not much of a surprise given yesterday’s signing of Jacob Maxwell.  Ausberry has been out with an injury and with Fauria slightly hobbled, the team decided to bring in more bodies for their pre-season game this Thursday.  Ausberry’s move to IR means an open roster spot which the team used to sign Jocquel Skinner.  Skinner, a corner out of Bethel University, is in his second year in the league after bouncing around between Dallas, Tampa Bay, and Carolina.
