Lions RT Penei Sewell (shoulder) is expected to play in Week 14 against the Cowboys.Lions LT Taylor Decker (shoulder/rest) and C Graham Glasgow (knee) are also expected to play. No word yet on Lions LG Kayode Awosika (foot). Likely having 3-of-4 injured starters on the field is good news for QB Jared Goff, who must face the Cowboys' top-tier pass-rush unit this evening. Hopefully, the group can improve its health in the coming weeks.
Jared Goff completed 25-of-34 passes for 309 yards and one touchdown in the Lions' 44-30, Week 14 win over the Cowboys.On a night that saw the Lions score four times on the ground, Goff aired it out for his second 300-yard game of the season while leading three pass-catchers to 75-plus yards on the day. Goff saw five of his receptions go for 25 or more yards on the day, with his longest throw coming on a 37-yard pass to Amon-Ra St. Brown that helped set up a touchdown run by Jahmyr Gibbs on the following play to put the game out of reach. Goff's lone touchdown pass on the day came in the third quarter on a 12-yard throw to rookie Isaac TeSlaa, who nearly hauled in another touchdown later in the day. It wasn't the biggest fantasy day for Goff, but he did everything we expected against a porous Cowboys secondary. The Lions continue to fight for their playoff lives and now draw a tough Week 15 matchup against the Rams, where he will profile as a fringe QB1.
Lions RT Penei Sewell (shoulder) did not participate in Tuesday's practice.Sewell was not on the injury report Monday, but popped up with a shoulder injury Tuesday and did not practice. Meanwhile, LT Taylor Decker has also been listed with a DNP tag due to a shoulder issue Tuesday, after initially being listed as limited Monday. Though it is possible both tackles could play Thursday against the Cowboys without practicing, any level of practice on Wednesday would provide some relief as it pertains to Jared Goff's blocking.
