Lions Week 11 inactives list: Romeo Okwara OUT, Tracy Walker IN

Detroit Lions Week 11 inactives list includes EDGE rusher Romeo Okwara but does not include Tracy Walker indicating he will play today.

The Detroit Lions (3-5-1) have declared their inactives list ahead of a Week 11 matchup with the Dallas Cowboys (5-4) at Ford Field.

Let’s take a look at who is out and who is in.

Ruled Inactive by the Lions

QB Matthew Stafford (back, hip) — Ruled out Friday
RT Rick Wagner (concussion) — Ruled out Friday
DL Da’Shawn Hand (ankle) — Ruled out Friday
DE Romeo Okwara (groin)
OG Beau Benzschawel
OT Dan Skipper
CB Michael Jackson

Stafford, Wagner, and Hand were ruled out on Friday and will be replaced in the starting lineup by Jeff Driskel, Tyrell Crosby, and Mike Daniels/A’Shawn Robinson respectively.

Okwara is still hobbled with a groin injury which means the Lions will likely turn to more linebacker sets, with Christian Jones spending time on the EDGE.

The Lions offensive line is down Wagner but with Kenny Wiggins able to step in at tackle in case of injury, Skipper won’t be needed in this game. Once again healthy on the interior, Benzschawel will also sit, per usual.

Jackson is still acclimating to the Lions scheme and will be inactive for another week.

Cowboys inactives

The Cowboys will be without their starting left the guard in Connor Williams and starting safety — and local Michigan native — Jeff Heath.
