Detroit Lions inactives list for Week 14 game against Chicago Bears

It hasn't been pretty for the Detroit Lions lately, but they've won three of their last four and at 9-3 they are in comfortable command of the NFC North. The list of injuries has been far shorter since the bye week compared to earlier in the season.

Week 14 brings a trip to take on the Chicago Bears, who have been playing better lately but are still just 4-8. Back in Week 11, the Lions needed a fourth quarter comeback to beat the Bears 31-26.

There are a couple notable injuries for the Lions this week. Center Frank Ragnow will be out after leaving last week's game against the Saints with a knee injury. Another notable absence, but not on the injury report or part of Sunday's inactives because he's not on the active roster, is Bruce Irvin. The veteran edge rusher is dealing with what was tabbed as a minor ankle injury, but he was not elevated from the practice squad on Saturday and thus he will not play.

On the positive side, linebacker Alex Anzalone did not have an injury designation for Sunday's game and is set to return after missing one game with a hand injury.
