The inactive player list for the Detroit Lions in their Week 12 matchup with the Indianapolis Colts features a name no one wanted to see on the sidelines. The Lions ruled out starting cornerback Terrion Arnold on Saturday with a groin injury that the first-round rookie suffered in Thursday’s practice. He was initially listed as questionable before being downgraded.
Arnold’s absence is the biggest inclusion on the Lions’ inactive list. The rest of the list for Week 12 is populated with some usual suspects:
OL Giovanni Manu
OL Colby Sorsdal
DL Al-Quadin Muhammad
Defensive tackle Brodric Martin is inactive in his return from the I.R. list. That’s not terribly surprising given the injuries around the rest of the roster.
Offensive lineman Kayode Awosika is also inactive for the first time all season. That leaves the Lions with rookie Christian Mahogany as the top reserve guard, the first time Mahogany has been active.
