LANDOVER, Md. – All five players on Detroit's 53-man roster who were listed as questionable to play in today's game vs. the Washington Commanders are active and in the lineup for the Lions.
That list includes: Left tackle Taylor Decker (shoulder), running back Craig Reynolds (hamstring), tackle Dan Skipper, (back), linebacker Grant Stuard (foot) and safety Daniel Thomas (forearm).
Decker has been battling a shoulder injury all season that prevented him from playing in a Week 5 win at Cincinnati and a Week 6 loss at Kansas City. Today is his third straight game starting at left tackle since those two absences. Reynolds, Stuard and Thomas are all core special teams players and key reserves.
Detroit already ruled out safety Kerby Joseph, defensive lineman Pat O'Connor and running back Jacob Saylors on Friday's injury report. This will be the third straight game the All-Pro Joseph will miss with a knee injury.
Joining Joseph, O'Connor and Saylors on Detroit's inactive list today are: Safety Erick Hallett, defensive lineman Quinton Jefferson and defensive lineman Mekhi Wingo.
The team elevated OL Michael Niese from the practice squad and he is active for today's contest.
