The National Football League has reinstated the Detroit Lions' seventh-round pick in the 2011 NFL Draft, ESPN's Mike Sando reports.
Detroit had been stripped of the pick, and ordered to swap 2011 fifth-round picks with the Kansas City Chiefs, as part of a tampering ruling against the club on February 18. The Lions appealed the ruling, and while they will still swap fifth-round picks with the Chiefs, the Lions will instead lose a 2012 seventh-round draft choice.
Gregg Rosenthal of ProFootballTalk.com reports that the Lions will lose a 2012 sixth-round pick if they make the playoffs.
The Lions now have six picks in next month's draft.
