The Lions <\/a>had their 2026 offseason team workouts in late-April and early-May. It was our first chance to see some returning Lions<\/a> who may have had injuries last season. Who was seen working out and who was not and what does it tell us?<\/p>\n

I recapped the notable player injury news and outlook in my Detroit Lions May 2026 Offseason Injury Updates. <\/a>Here is the excerpt on Ennis Rakestraw:<\/p>\n

2026 OUTLOOK: Rakestraw will be fully healthy for the start of the 2026 season (source: him). Coming off two seasons ravaged by injuries, the hope is he can break that trend and reach his 2nd-round potential.<\/p>\n
