Lions give Amon-Ra St. Brown questionable status for Germany game
Three Detroit players have been ruled out against the Patriots, while running back Sione Vaki is also questionable.
Detroit wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown has been designated questionable because of a rib injury for the Lions’ matchup with the Patriots in Germany. He is one of two Detroit players carrying that status, alongside running back Sione Vaki.
The Lions will be without three other players: Kerby Joseph at safety, Cade Mays at center and DJ Reed at cornerback. All three have been ruled out of the game.
Quarterback Jared Goff, safety Brian Branch, running back Jacob Saylors and pass rusher DJ Wonnum have also been dealing with injuries. Each participated fully in practice for two days, and all four are set to be available against the Patriots.
The Germany appearance holds personal importance for St. Brown, whose mother is German and who speaks German fluently. He had identified the matchup as a significant one for him personally.
