Paschal (knee) was activated from injured reserve Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
The 2022 second-round pick out of Kentucky has a chance to appear in his first game since the Lions' Week 1 win over the Chiefs, as he's questionable for Sunday's contest at Baltimore. Throughout his rookie year, Paschal appeared in 10 games and recorded 10 total tackles, two tackles for loss and two sacks.

Paschal (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Baltimore, Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Paschal was designated to return from his stint on the injured reserve list a week ago, but it's still not clear he's ready to come back going into the weekend. If he's activated for Week 7, he'll step back into a rotational role on the edge for Detroit.

Paschal (knee) was designated to return from injured reserve Friday, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 23-year-old was placed on injured reserve after Detroit's Week 1 win over Kansas City, and he was able to return to limited participation in practice Friday. His 21-day window to be activated to the Lions' active roster has opened, but he won't be able to suit up for this Sunday's game against Tampa Bay.

Paschal (knee) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Seahawks.
EDGE Analysis
Paschal missed Friday's practice with a knee injury, and he's since been ruled out for Sunday's contest. The 23-year-old recorded three total tackles, including one tackle for loss, during Detroit's Week 1 victory over Kansas City. Paschal's role as a rotational edge rusher will most likely be filled by Levi Onwuzurike against Seattle.

Paschal recorded 16 tackles and two sacks over 10 games in 2022.
EDGE Analysis
While a sports hernia injury delayed the debut of the second-round rookie out of Kentucky, Paschal handled over 81 percent of the defensive snaps in each of his first three career games only to suffer a knee injury in Week 10. After returning in Week 13 -- one week after James Houston burst onto the scene -- Paschal topped 28 percent of the defensive snaps only once, though he did flash his upside during with a two-sack performance in Week 16 against the Panthers. It's not clear how the edge rotation will look in 2023, but Paschal figures to be a key piece of an improving Detroit defensive front one way or the other.

Paschal (knee) is listed as out for Thursday's game versus Buffalo.
EDGE Analysis
Paschal will miss his second consecutive game while dealing with a knee injury he presumably sustained in Week 10 at Chicago. With Charles Harris (groin) also out in Week 12, Austin Bryant should be in line to start opposite Aidan Hutchinson on Detroit's front four Thursday.

Paschal (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Giants, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Paschal was unable to practice at all during Week 11 prep due to a knee injury he presumably picked up in Week 10. Charles Harris (groin) is also out, so John Cominsky and Julian Okwara are candidates for increased roles opposite Aidan Hutchinson along Detroit's defensive line.
