Amon-Ra St. Brown Out Again TuesdayLions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) remained sidelined for Tuesday's practice. He said afterward that he's still uncertain whether he'll be able to play vs. the Cowboys on Thursday night. I m not sure right now, if I m being honest," St. Brown said. "It s still up in the air. I ma try to be out there for the guys, for my teammates, but I couldn t answer that question right now. We'll see how St. Brown is listed on tomorrow's final injury report, but fantasy owners should not be counting on him playing vs. Dallas. WR Kalif Raymond (ankle) is also expected to miss Week 14, HC Dan Campbell said. That'll leave Jameson Williams, Isaac TeSlaa, and Tom Kennedy as Detroit's top three WRs, if St. Brown is out.
Amon-Ra St. Brown "Week-To-Week" With Low-Ankle SprainLions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown is believed to have suffered a low-ankle sprain in Thursday's loss to the Packers, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. "St. Brown is not expected to land on IR and likely will be week-to-week," Pelissero adds. We'd consider St. Brown unlikely to play vs. the Cowboys next Thursday, but it sounds like he has a chance to make it back for Week 15's meeting with the Rams. Detroit already lost TE Sam LaPorta for the season. We'll see if WR Kalif Raymond and TE Brock Wright can make it back for the Dallas game. Isaac TeSlaa and Tom Kennedy operated as the No. 2 and 3 WRs behind Jameson Williams after St. Brown exited on Thanksgiving.
Jared Goff completed 20-of-26 passes for 256 yards and two touchdowns in the Lions' 31-24, Week 13 loss to the Packers.Goff lost WR Amon-Ra St. Brown to an ankle injury on the Lions' second drive. TE Sam LaPorta is also on injured reserve with a back injury. The veteran quarterback handled the situation well, funneling passes to WR Jameson Williams on in-breaking routes over the middle, but the thinned-out pass-catching corps, coupled with the Packers' pass rush, made it tough sledding. To his credit, journeyman WR Tom Kennedy operated as a serviceable emergency option. Goff is a QB1 in what should be a high-scoring game environment against the Cowboys next week.
Lions declared CB Terrion Arnold, DL Quinton Jefferson, S Kerby Joseph, WR Tom Kennedy, RB Craig Reynolds, and DL Mekhi Wingo inactive for Week 11 against the Eagles.Both Arnold and Joseph will miss their third games of the season as the Lions prepare to face the Eagles on Sunday Night Football. The Lions have dropped two of their previous four games after starting the season 4-1 as the aim to keep pace with the Lions and Packers atop a congested NFC North.
