Lions' Eric Ebron (hamstring) has been absent from practice this week

Detroit Lions tight end Eric Ebron has missed all of practice this week, according to MLive's Kyle Meinke.

What It Means:

After making a brief appearance in practice on Friday, Ebron has been sidelined as the result of a hamstring injury suffered on the very first day of practice. He has yet to play in the preseason and there hasn't been any word on an expected return date. If this problem persists, Darren Fells would probably be the guy to hold down the tight end spot in Detroit.

Going as the 14th tight end in standard, 12-team drafts, our numbers have him up at TE11. If healthy, we like him to total 65.1 receptions, 748.2 yards and 4.19 scores in his 4th NFL season.
