The Lions’ other injured players this week are tackle Taylor Decker (elbow), safety DeShon Elliott (ankle), center Frank Ragnow (foot), and running backs D’Andre Swift (ankle) and Jamaal Williams (hand).
D’Andre Swift began the week with a limited performance due to an ankle injury, but it had no effect on his activity level one day later, effectively clearing him for Week 14 action.

Minnesota questioned tackle Christian Darrisaw (concussion), center Garrett Bradbury (neck), and safety Harrison Smith (neck).
Darrisaw has cleared the concussion protocol, according to Vikings Head Coach Kevin O’Connell, but the Vikings want to be cautious with him as he works his way back.
Blake Brandel has started the last two games in place of Darrisaw, as well as filling in for him against Buffalo and Dallas.
Smith was initially listed as recovering from an illness but is now dealing with a neck issue that “just kind of acted up.”
“We’ll see how he feels coming off a good work day,” O’Connell said.
Outside linebacker Danielle Hunter (illness), cornerback Patrick Peterson (illness), linebacker Eric Kendricks (shoulder), and safety Theo Jackson (illness) did not receive designations but are expected to be available.
