Lions Injury Report: Key Players Questionable for Giants Clash

As the Detroit Lions approach the end of the regular season and potential playoff run, player health is a major concern. Recent observations suggest Amon-Ra St. Brown may be playing through a lingering hand or wrist injury, contributing to an uptick in dropped passes. Meanwhile, tight end Sam LaPorta has been placed on injured reserve, with his back injury potentially being spine-related, although coach Dan Campbell remains hopeful for his return this season.

The initial injury report for the upcoming Giants game lists several prominent Lions players as questionable. Starters like Terrion Arnold (concussion), Brian Branch (toe), and Kerby Joseph (knee) did not practice, though some are expected to be ready by Sunday. Other notable players with limited or no practice include offensive linemen Taylor Decker and Penei Sewell, as well as edge rusher Marcus Davenport.

Despite the lengthy list, many of the issues appear minor, and the team has strategies for managing IR return slots. The Giants also have significant injury concerns, highlighting the importance of player availability for both teams. The Lions aim to navigate these challenges while maintaining their competitive edge in the crucial final games.
