Amon-Ra St. Brown Misses Second Lions, Cowboys Practice Due to Injury
The Detroit Lions and Dallas Cowboys are gearing up for their Week 14 matchup on “Thursday Night Football.” As teams prepare, the focus is on the latest injury updates, especially concerning key players like Amon-Ra St. Brown.
Amon-Ra St. Brown’s Injury Impact
Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown is recovering from an ankle injury sustained during the Thanksgiving Day game. Consequently, he has missed two consecutive practices leading up to the critical game against the Cowboys.
Coach Dan Campbell has hinted that St. Brown’s availability will be a game-time decision. He stated, “He’s better. He’s better, that’s the best way to say it.” However, St. Brown himself expressed uncertainty about his status, saying, “I’m not sure right now, if I’m being honest. It’s still up in the air.”
Other Key Injuries for the Lions
- Kalif Raymond (WR) – Also struggling with an ankle injury, he is not expected to play this week.
- Shane Zylstra (TE) – Listed with a knee injury after working through ankle issues.
- Taylor Decker (LT) – Managing a shoulder injury; his recent absence appears to be for rest.
- Penei Sewell (RT) – Now on the injury report with a new shoulder issue.
- Kerby Joseph (S) – Downgraded to no practice after a brief return, raising doubts about his participation.
Additional Updates
Other players like Sione Vaki, Graham Glasgow, and Brian Branch have managed limited practices. Their return will be vital as the team faces potential depth issues.
As the Lions aim to address their injury woes, they must prepare to face the Cowboys with a roster that may be missing several key contributors.
Fans will be closely watching the final injury report, expected later this week, to gauge player readiness ahead of this important game.
