Lions' Jared Goff: Set to miss another practice
Goff (oblique) didn't take part in the open portion of Thursday's practice and is set to be listed as a non-participant for the second day in a row, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.
The consecutive absences from practice as the Lions prepare for Sunday's game in Cleveland isn't a great early sign for Goff's availability, but the coaching and training staff will wait and see if the signal-caller is able to get back on the field Friday before updating his status. For his part, Goff believes that as long as the oblique injury doesn't affect his "functionality" as a quarterback, he thinks he'll be able to play through the pain in Cleveland, according to Chris Burke of The Athletic. If Goff ultimately can't go Sunday, Tim Boyle (thumb) -- who remains on injured reserve but is taking reps in practice this week -- would likely be activated for his first career NFL start.
