Lions' John Cominsky: Goes on IR
Cominsky (knee) was placed on injured reserve Thursday.
Cominsky's shift to IR was a likely formality after he suffered an MCL tear during practice in July. A return this season isn't impossible for the Charleston product, although he likely wouldn't be cleared to suit up until the postseason.

Lions' John Cominsky: Agrees to pay cut
Cominsky agreed to restructure his contract with the Lions on Tuesday, Justin Rogers of The Detroit News reports.
Cominsky saw a drop in production from his 2022 numbers in 2023, recording 15 fewer pressures, along with 2.0 fewer sacks, despite playing two more games. The 28-year-old was due to be paid $5.1 million but agreed to a $2.1 million pay cut, bringing his 2024 cap hit down to $4.2 million instead of $6.3 million.

Lions' John Cominsky: Logs 2.0 sacks in 2023
Cominsky recorded 36 tackles, 2.0 sacks and one pass defended over 16 regular-season games in 2023.
Cominsky finished 2023 with the second-most snaps among Lions defensive linemen behind Aidan Hutchinson while starting 11 of the 16 games for which he was available. While he is a solid player, the Lions finished with the ninth-fewest sacks (41) last season largely due to a lack of production behind Hutchinson, who finished sixth in the league with 11.5 sacks. Cominsky seems to have a good chance to stick in Detroit in 2024 even though his potential release could open $4.6 million in cap space, but it would not be a surprise if the Lions look for an upgrade during the offseason.

Lions' John Cominsky: Could miss wild-card outing
Cominsky (illness) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Rams, Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com reports.
Despite a full week of practice, Cominsky seems to be dealing with an illness that could hold him out of the Lions' wild-card affair. If the 28-year-old is unable to suit up Sunday, expect Josh Paschal to shoulder an increased workload on Detroit's defensive line.
