The Lions
signed Firkser to their active roster Saturday.
ANALYSISFirkser's signing could be an indication that Detroit is preparing to be without rookie sensation
Sam LaPorta (knee) in Sunday's wild-card game against the Rams. If the Lions are without LaPorta in the postseason opener, Firkser would likely serve as the team's top backup tight end behind
Brock Wright.
