Lions' Malcolm Rodriguez: Aiming to practice after bye

Coach Dan Campbell said Tuesday the Lions are hopeful to get Rodriguez (knee) back at practice following the Week 8 bye, Justin Rogers of Detroit Football Network reports.

Rodriguez suffered a torn ACL in Week 13 last season and underwent a second, cleanup procedure on the knee over the summer, delaying his return to action. He remains on the reserve/PUP list, but it sounds like a November return could be in the cards for the veteran linebacker and special-teams standout.
