Jones didn't practice Wednesday due to a knee injury.

Jones and fellow starting wideout Danny Amendola (hip) both missed Wednesday's practice, while Kenny Golladay (hip) and T.J. Hockenson (toe) were limited participants. To make matters worse for Detroit's receiving corps, quarterback Matthew Stafford sat out practice and could be in danger of missing time due to a ligament tear in his thumb. As such, the Lions can scarcely afford for Jones to miss Sunday's game in Carolina.
