Lazard (shoulder) practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Prior to sitting out this past Sunday at Buffalo, Lazard didn't practice at all, so his return to the field Wednesday is an encouraging sign as he works his way back from a left shoulder injury. He may have to get back to full activity Thursday or Friday to avoid a designation for Sunday's contest at Detroit, but he's at least put himself on a path to keep his absence to just one game.
