Muti (shoulder) has been participating in the Lions' offseason training activities, John Maakaron of SI.com reports.
Muti spent all of last season on IR due to a shoulder injury after signing with the Lions in February. He's presumably now healthy given his participation in OTAs. Maakaron notes that Muti has been working with Detroit's second-unit offensive line, which coincides with the expectation that he'll work in a backup role if he makes the team.

Lions' Netane Muti: Placed on injured reserve
Rotowire
Muti (shoulder) was placed on IR on Thursday.
Head coach Dan Campbell stated Muti's injury was serious and would require surgery, according to Jeff Risdon of USA Today. The 25-year-old's placement on injured reserve will end his 2024 campaign unless he reaches an injury settlement with the team.
Muti signed an extension with the Raiders on Thursday.
Muti spent most of the 2022 season on the Broncos' practice squad, though the Raiders signed him to the active roster on Dec. 13. He'll be in line to serve as offensive line depth if he can make the team out of training camp.
