Detroit Lions cornerback Roger McCreary, who was dealing with a foot injury heading into today’s game against the Minnesota Vikings, is officially ACTIVE, shrugging off his injury designation at Ford Field. Kickoff is coming up fast, and both teams have dropped their inactive lists.
Vikings’ Backfield Depth Chart Is Locked In (Again)
The Minnesota Vikings’ inactive list has no real shockers, looking pretty much like it has for most of their games this season. Quarterback Max Brosmer is the emergency QB, so he’s out. Running back Demond Claiborne is also inactive once more, which means the backfield depth chart remains Jordan Mason, Aaron Jones, and DeeJay Dallas.
On the defensive side, cornerback Chuck Demmings, safety Jakobe Thomas, and defensive lineman Elijah Williams are all out. Up front, offensive lineman Caleb Tiernan won’t be suiting up either. It’s worth noting that Jakobe Thomas still hasn’t been active for a single game all season long. You gotta wonder when he’s gonna get his shot, right?
Lions Shake Off Injury Concerns, McCreary Is Good To Go
For the Detroit Lions, there were definitely fewer injury headaches going into this one. The biggest question mark was cornerback Roger McCreary and his foot injury, but he’s good to go and is active for the game. That’s a huge relief for their secondary, ensuring they’re as close to full strength as possible. No surprises there on their final injury report, which is always good news for the home crowd.
Their inactive list includes safety Bishop Fitzgerald, outside linebacker Ahmed Hassanein, center Seth McLaughlin, tight end Jackson Meeks, and defensive lineman Mekhi Wingo. It’s the typical game day roster shuffle, but having McCreary available is a solid win for Detroit as they get ready to face Minnesota.
