Lions at Packers final injury report: 6 questionable for Monday night

Despite coming off a bye week, the Detroit Lions have several players questionable for the Monday night matchup against the Packers.

Prior to their Week Five bye, the Detroit Lions appeared to be a team on the rise. After suffering a disappointing tie to the Arizona Cardinals in Week One, the Lions posted three solid performances against 2018 playoff teams in the Los Angeles Chargers, the Philadelphia Eagles, and the Kansas City Chiefs.

The Lions now emerge from their bye week with a record of 2-1-1 and in second place within the NFC North. Detroit is set to face the division leader, the 4-1 Green Bay Packers, this Monday night in a primetime battle on ESPN. But the Lions will do so with several of their players questionable for the pivotal divisional matchup.

On their final injury report released Saturday, the Lions listed a total of nine players despite coming off their bye week. Six of those nine are listed as questionable to play in Green Bay. And two Pride players have already been officially listed as out.

The six questionable players for Detroit are wide receiver Danny Amendola (chest), safety Quandre Diggs (hamstring), defensive lineman Da’Shawn Hand (elbow), tight end T.J. Hockenson (concussion), defensive tackle A’Shawn Robinson (knee), and cornerback Darius Slay (hamstring). Hockenson was a full participant in practice on Saturday while the others were all limited during the session.

Defensive tackle Mike Daniels (foot) and rookie cornerback Amani Oruwariye (knee) have already been designated as out for Monday Night in Lambeau Field. The only other Lions player to appear on the final injury report was quarterback Matthew Stafford. Despite dealing with a hip injury, the 11-year passer was a full participant during the entire week of practice and is expected to start against the Packers on Monday night.
