From the article

One guy Holmes was quick to mention was Tom Kennedy, who currently resides on the practice squad. It certainly sounds like he could be in for a 53-man roster elevation, especially as the most likely candidate to be the team's punt returner. 'He's still part of our 69(-man roster) currently right now. He was able to add some special teams to his repertoire. He kind of did a little bit of that last year. But we all know the versatility that he has,' Holmes said.

Kennedy likely candidate for roster elevation; primary punt returner option.

Wide receiver Tom Kennedy currently resides on the practice squad but is positioned for a potential 53-man roster elevation. Holmes indicated Kennedy is 'the most likely candidate to be the team's punt returner' and praised his versatility: 'He's still part of our 69(-man roster) currently right now. He was able to add some special teams to his repertoire. He kind of did a little bit of that last year. But we all know the versatility that he has.' The source notes the Lions kept only four receivers on the 53-man roster, suggesting potential movement at the position.
