The Detroit Lions remain pretty stable on the practice participation front ahead of Thursday night’s home matchup with the Green Bay Packers. Tuesday’s practice in Allen Park saw no new additions to the injury list, and even had one player upgrade from limited to full participant.
That upgrade was cornerback Carlton Davis, who missed the Thanksgiving win over the Chicago Bears. Head coach Dan Campbell offered this positive assessment of Davis’ chances to play before the practice,
“I felt like (Lions CB Carlton Davis III) CD looked pretty good yesterday, looked real good actually, so barring nothing else today in practice I feel pretty good there.
The news was not as optimistic for left tackle Taylor Decker, who remains out of practice with a knee injury suffered in Week 12.
“Yeah, I don’t feel as good about Decker for this week,” Campbell stated.
Three defensive linemen also all remain out from practice:
Levi Onwuzurike (hamstring)
Josh Paschal (knee)
DJ Reader (shoulder)
On Reader, Campbell had this to say before practice,
“Yeah, well he’s – I don’t see him practicing today either and he’s kind of a day-to-day deal here.”
