Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown racked up 10 catches and 119 yards in Sunday's win over the Bears, on a team-high 11 targets. Detroit's lead receiver drew 42.3% of QB Jared Goff's pass attempts, claimed 52.6% of the team's completions and delivered 50.4% of the receiving yards. WR Kalif Raymond (3) and RB Justin Jackson (2) were the only other Lions to catch multiple passes. Goff finished 19 of 26 for 236 yards, 1 TD and 0 INTs. St. Brown added 1 carry for 2 yards.
Lions S Kerby Joseph (concussion) is active for today's game against the Bears. That matches what coaches said they expected. LB Malcolm Rodriguez (elbow) is inactive.
Lions S Kerby Joseph (concussion) is officially questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears. HC Dan Campbell said Friday, though, that he's "good to go." LB Malcolm Rodriguez (elbow) is also questionable. He returned to last week's game after sustaining the injury but played limited snaps. Rodriguez will be a high-risk play in IDP lineups this week.
Lions RB Craig Reynolds (ribs) has been placed on IR. Justin Jackson will step in as Detroit's #3 RB but is only worth stashing in deep fantasy leagues.
Lions LB Malcolm Rodriguez injured his right elbow on the 1st possession of Sunday's win over the Packers. He returned to the game with a brace on it, but wound up playing much less than usual (19 snaps). The rookie trailed Alex Anzalone and Derrick Barnes in that category. "He was able to go back in, do a little bit but I know he irritated it," HC Dan Campbell told the Detroit Free Press on Monday. "We’ll see where he feels over the next few days." Plan on not having Rodriguez in your Week 10 IDP lineups. We'll see whether Barnes can be an option. Anzalone has spent all season as a full-timer.
Lions S Kerby Joseph delivered 10 tackles and 2 INTs (among 3 passes defensed) in Sunday's win over the Packers. Unfortunately, HC Dan Campbell said afterward that Joseph is in the concussion protocol, according to ESPN's Eric Woodyard. We'll see how he progresses. Detroit visits Chicago in Week 10.
Lions QB Jared Goff threw for just 137 yards in Sunday's win over the Packers. He went 14-of-26 passing for the day, with 2 TDs and 1 INT. WR Amon-Ra St. Brown garnered 34.6% of the team's targets (9), catching 4 for 55 yards. RB D'Andre Swift and WR Tom Kennedy tied for 2nd on the team with 4 targets apiece. WR Kalif Raymond caught all 3 of his targets for 17 yards.
Buccaneers CB Carlton Davis (hip) and DL Akiem Hicks (foot) are active for today's game against the Rams.
Lions RB Craig Reynolds has been ruled out of Sunday's game vs. the Packers with a rib injury. That leaves Justin Jackson as Detroit's #3 RB behind D'Andre Swift and Jamaal Williams.
Lions EDGE Charles Harris (groin) is active for today's game against the Packers. He makes for a high-risk IDP option after not playing since Week 4.
Lions TE Brock Wright (concussion) is active for today’s game vs. the Packers. He figures to split TE duties with James Mitchell after this week’s T.J. Hockenson trade.
Lions TE Brock Wright (concussion) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Packers. He was a full participant in Friday’s practice, so Wright is seemingly on track to get cleared and split TE duties with James Mitchell on Sunday.
Lions TE Brock Wright (concussion) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. We'll see what he does on Friday and how he's listed on the final injury report. If he's cleared in time for this weekend's game vs. the Packers, Wright will split TE duties with rookie James Mitchell.
Lions TE Brock Wright (concussion) did not practice on Wednesday. That makes him iffy for this weekend's game vs. the Packers. Wright was slated to share TE duties with James Mitchell after T.J. Hockenson's departure. Wright's absence would be a boost for Mitchell and make the rookie an intriguing Week 9 DFS flier.
Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown (concussion) is active for today’s game vs. the Dolphins. He should play his usual, high-volume role.
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown has cleared the concussion protocol and is set to play today against the Dolphins. Make sure he's in your fantasy football lineups.
Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown (concussion) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Dolphins. He was a full participant in Friday’s practice, though, so he appears on track to be cleared by Sunday. Pencil St. Brown into fantasy lineups for now, but check back around 11:30 am ET on Sunday to make sure he’s active. WR Josh Reynolds (knee) is not listed on the final Week 8 injury report after putting in a full practice on Friday.
Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown (concussion protocol) remained limited in Thursday's practice. He should still be on track to be cleared in time for Sunday's game vs. Miami, but check back tomorrow for another update.
Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown (concussion) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. Lions HC Dan Campbell said earlier this week that St. Brown wasn't actually diagnosed with a concussion, but the new protocols still require him to go through this process. Barring a surprise, he'll be cleared for Sunday's game vs. the Dolphins.
Bears HC Matt Eberflus said Wednesday that he'll continue deploying a committee backfield with RBs David Montgomery and Khalil Herbert. Montgomery out-snapped Herbert just 56% to 41% in Monday night's win over the Patriots. Montgomery finished with 15 carries and 0 targets to Herbert's 12 carries and 2 targets. "We're going to continue to do that," Eberflus said. "Going to continue to use both of those guys." A committee backfield in a low-scoring offense is obviously rough for fantasy production. We're treating Montgomery as a RB3 and Herbert as a RB4 for now.
