Still nursing hamstring injury
DTDetroit Lions
Hamstring
December 2, 2024
Onwuzurike (hamstring) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's practice report, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The fourth-year defensive lineman from Washington was unable to return to the Lions' Week 13 win over the Bears after sustaining a hamstring injury, so Monday's DNP listing comes as no surprise. He likely needs to upgrade to at least limited participation Tuesday or Wednesday in order to play in Thursday night's divisional matchup against the Packers.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
2021
Yet to provide much return on Detroit's second-round investment in 2021, Onwuzurike enters his third season in a rotational role after missing all of 2022 with a back injury. Whether he sees most of his time inside or outside of the defensive line remains to be seen, but expectations should remain in check for the high-pedigree player who first needs to earn a role before commanding any fantasy consideration.
Onwuzurike is no lock to be ready for Week 1 after injuring his back during training camp. When healthy, the 2021 second-round draft pick should be a key rotational piece along the Lions' defensive line.
A second-round draft pick out of Washington, Onwuzurike could serve a key role at defensive end as the Lions defense primarily transitions to a 3-4 scheme.
