The Lions placed Reeves-Maybin (neck) on injured reserve Saturday. Reeves-Maybin was already ruled out for Sunday's game against the Texans due to a neck injury he picked up in Week 9 against the Packers. However, the injury is severe enough to warrant a multi-week absence, and Reeves-Maybin will be forced to sit for at least the next four regular-season games. The earliest he can return is Week 14 against Green Bay on Thursday, Dec. 5.

Reeves-Maybin (neck) didn't practice Wednesday. The veteran linebacker sustained what appeared to be a shoulder injury in the Lions' Week 9 win over the Packers, though it has since been clarified as a neck issue. Reeves-Maybin is likely in jeopardy of missing Detroit's Week 10 matchup in Houston if he's unable to practice in a limited fashion Thursday or Friday.

Reeves-Maybin (shoulder) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Packers. Reeves-Maybin suffered a shoulder injury in the second half, leaving his availability for the remainder of the game in question. In his absence, Alex Anzalone will operate as the team's exclusive traditional option at middle linebacker.

Reeves-Maybin (groin) is seemingly healthy once again, Daniel Mears of The Detroit News reports. Reeves-Maybin has now recovered from a groin injury suffered during the NFC Championship Game last season. The 29-year-old will look to contribute both on special teams and as a reserve defender once the regular season starts.

Reeves-Maybin (groin) is questionable to return to Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the 49ers. Reeves-Maybin sustained the third injury in the third quarter of Sunday's game. He did not record a stat before his exit. Anthony Pittman is the next man up as a depth outside linebacker alongside Justin Houston with both Reeves-Maybin and Derrick Barnes (knee) questionable to return Sunday.
