The Detroit Lions are bringing back tight end Tyler Conklin, according to a report from CBS Sports' Matt Zenitz. Conklin had been repping as TE3 throughout training camp, and it was a surprise to see him released last Sunday. However, with him returning to the team just a few days later, it's plausible that this was the plan all along.

Conklin re-signed to Lions; TE3 role enables 13 personnel packages and tight end depth.

Detroit Lions re-signing tight end Tyler Conklin after a brief release; Conklin had been repping as TE3 throughout training camp and is returning to the roster (either 53-man or practice squad). His balanced skill set adds depth to the tight end room and enables the Lions to run heavy 13 personnel (three tight end sets), opening up the playbook and providing security against injury. The quick re-signing suggests this may have been the plan all along.
