ALLEN PARK, Mich. — Detroit Lions offensive tackle Taylor Decker has taken a step back in his comeback from a shoulder injury.
Decker returned to practice Wednesday and was taken off the physically unable to perform list. He hurt his right shoulder during an off-season workout with the team and had surgery in June.
The Lions acquired Greg Robinson in a trade with the Los Angeles Rams after Decker was injured and started him in six games at left tackle. Brian Mihalik replaced the injured Robinson on Sunday in a loss to Pittsburgh.
Detroit drafted Decker in the first round last year and he started every game.
The Lions (3-4) have lost three straight going into a road game against Green Bay (4-3) on Monday night.
