    Four players expected to be in the lineup on the first day of Detroit Lions training camp are instead sitting it out. The Lions placed four players on the non-football injury list to start camp on Wednesday.

    Three of the four are newcomers to Detroit:

    CB Carlton Davis

    CB Amik Robertson

    WR Tre’Quan Smith

    Holdover wideout Donovan Peoples-Jones is the fourth to land on the NFI/active list.

    The NFI is a designation for players who are unable to compete due to injuries or conditions not sustained in organized football. It could be something as simple as not passing the team’s rigorous conditioning test. All are able to be activated at any time.

    All four were active participants in the team’s minicamp in June.
