The Detroit Lions listed nine players on their Wednesday injury report.
The most notable name on the list was superstar wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown, who was a surprise addition to the Lions’ report with a wrist injury.
The fifth-year wideout was among seven players who did not participate, joining cornerback Terrion Arnold (shoulder), linebacker Zach Cunningham (hamstring), offensive tackle Taylor Decker (shoulder), defensive back Kerby Joseph (knee), receiver Kalif Raymond (neck) and running back Sione Vaki (hamstring).
Defensive back Brian Branch was limited with an ankle injury, and defensive tackle Alim McNeill notched full participation despite a knee injury.
St. Brown’s injury status will be closely monitored leading up to Sunday’s Week 6 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs.
