Lions' Brandon Pettigrew: Practices in full Thursday

Pettigrew (elbow) practiced in full Thursday, Kyle Meinke of MLive.com reports.

Pettigrew appears to be building toward his first appearance since Week 5, but his presence behind Eric Ebron on the depth chart doesn't lend itself to a preponderance of targets. In two appearances this season, Pettigrew has managed to corral just three of six passes for 29 yards.
