Detorit linebacker Bobby Carpenter -- remember him? -- did not practice on Wednesday because of a toe injury and could miss the Lions' game against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday.
For those with short memory, the Cowboys selected Carpenter in the first round of the 2006 draft with the 18th pick overall. On May 10, the Cowboys traded Carpenter to St. Louis for offensive tackle Alex Barron. Since then, Carpenter has been released by the Rams and MIami before landing with Detroit.
Carpenter has appeared in three games with the Lions and has not participated in a tackle.
Carpenter was among nine Lions to miss practice. The group included kicker Jason Hanson and ace wide receiver Calvin Johnson.
