Derrick Barnes News: Practices Friday
Barnes (knee/finger) was cleared to practice Friday, Nolan Bianchi of The Detroit News reports.
Barnes was limited to just three regular-season games in 2024 after injuring his MCL and PCL in Week 3 against the Cardinals. The 2021 fourth-rounder returned to practice earlier this week, and although he left Thursday's session early due to a finger injury, he was cleared to participate in Friday's session. Barnes logged 81 tackles (42 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and one forced fumble over 16 regular-season games in 2023.
