10 Lions sit out practice, 5 more limited to start Week 5

The Lions still have a lot of injury issues to start practices for Week 5

There was a decided shortage of healthy bodies in Wednesday’s practice session at the Detroit Lions team facility in Allen Park. A full 15 players of the Lions 53-man roster were either out or limited to start Week 5.

Ten players missed the session entirely, while five others were officially listed as limited participants.

Those who were out:

LB Chris Board

OL Evan Brown

WR Quintez Cephus

WR DJ Chark

DL John Cominsky

TE T.J. Hockenson

C Frank Ragnow

WR Josh Reynolds

RB D’Andre Swift

WR Amon-Ra St. Brown

Those limited were OL Kayode Awosika, LT Taylor Decker, LG Jonah Jackson, OT Matt Nelson and K Austin Seibert. Jackson and Seibert have been out with injuries so their return to even limited practice is a positive development.
