Heller caught four passes for 21 yards Sunday against Green Bay.
ANALYSIS
Heller saw the field because Brandon Pettigrew left early with an ankle injury. It was Heller's second multi-catch game of the season and first since Week 1. It's unclear what Pettigrew's status for this week is, but Tony Scheffer will get most of the tight end targets if Pettigrew sits.

Heller will be Detroit's fullback and third tight end behind the productive Brandon Pettigrew and Tony Schefter.
Heller is penciled in as the No. 3 tight end for the Lions behind Tony Scheffler and Brandon Pettigrew.
Heller will likely be the Lions' third tight end behind Tony Scheffler and Brandon Pettigrew.
Heller will have to battle to earn a spot on the 53-man roster.
The Seahawks like to use their tight ends, but they didn't get much out of last year’s starter Marcus Pollard, who had just 35 targets and 28 receptions. With Pollard gone, Heller is the incumbent, but he'll have to battle 2008 second-round pick John Carlson and free-agent Jeb Putzier for the starting spot. Whoever wins the starting job could see a decent amount of work. Seattle targeted its tight ends 15 times in the red zone last season.
Heller will continue his role as mostly an extra blocker in multiple tight end sets. It'll take an injury to start Marcus Pollard for Heller to improve significantly over his four catches for 32 yards last season.
Provides depth at tight end. Don't expect anything more, barring significant injuries to Jerramy Stevens or Itula Mili.
The third tight end on the Dolphins' roster.
He'll compete for a reserve tight end and special teams role with the Bucs in 2004.
Heller's a long shot to make the Bucs as the last tight end on the roster.
