Lions DT Danny Shelton offers a positive health update

Defensive tackle Danny Shelton offered up some positive news on the healthy front. The big DT revealed he had surgery on his triceps after the Lions season ended.

It was one of several injuries that Shelton battled through in his first year in Detroit. Shelton missed four games late in the season with a knee injury, suffered in the Thanksgiving loss to the Houston Texans. He came back from injured reserve, returning for the Week 17 finale against the Vikings.

In 12 games this year, the 27-year-old Shelton registered 37 tackles and one sack. He is under contract with the Lions for one more season.
