Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Impressive primetime performance
Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) brought in six of nine targets for 92 yards in the Detroit Lions' 44-30 win over the Cowboys on Thursday night.The standout receiver's availability was in question leading up to game day due to the low-ankle sprain he'd suffered on Thanksgiving against the Packers, but St. Brown looked to be free of any limitations while making several noteworthy catches. St. Brown finished second in receptions and receiving yards on the night, while also tying Jameson Williams for the team lead in targets. The fifth-year pro also helped seal Detroit's win via his game-long 37-yard grab with under three minutes remaining, setting up Jahmyr Gibbs' 13-yard touchdown run on the next play. St. Brown has now exceeded 90 receiving yards on five occasions heading into a Week 15 road showdown against the Rams on Sunday, Dec. 14.

Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Suiting up Thursday
Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) is listed as active Thursday against the Cowboys.Last Thursday against the Packers, St. Brown injured his ankle on the Detroit Lions' second possession and wasn't able to return. He was diagnosed with a low left-ankle sprain in the wake of the contest, and he didn't practice Monday through Wednesday this week before the team listed him as questionable for Week 14 action. Along the way, coach Dan Campbell told Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com that "if he can play, he'll play," and that now has been confirmed after St. Brown completed a pregame workout, per Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com and Justin Rogers of DetroitFootball.net. It's unclear if St. Brown will have any restrictions, but he at least is available for QB Jared Goff along with fellow WR Jameson Williams and RBs Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery.

Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Status in question for Week 14
Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Cowboys.St. Brown departed in the first quarter of last Thursday's loss to the Packers and wasn't able to return due to an ankle injury. He was diagnosed with a low left-ankle sprain in the wake of the contest, and he proceeded to miss all three sessions of Week 14 prep. Despite the lack of activity this week, St. Brown still has a chance to play Thursday, with coach Dan Campbell telling Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com on Tuesday that "if he can play, he'll play." St. Brown added that his ankle "hurts, but it's getting better. So, that's the good news. Just day by day." If St. Brown isn't able to suit up, Jameson Williams will be the clear-cut top WR for the Detroit Lions, with Isaac TeSlaa, Tom Kennedy and Dominic Lovett also on hand for targets, as Kalif Raymond (ankle) has been ruled out.

Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Misses practice, iffy for Thursday
Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell said that Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) won't practice Tuesday, but the wideout could still be available for Thursday's game against the Cowboys, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports.St. Brown has yet to practice in any fashion since exiting early in the Lions' Thanksgiving Day loss to the Packers due to a left low-ankle sprain. Campbell acknowledged that the receiver's condition has improved since then and the Lions are leaving the door open for St. Brown to play Thursday, even though he would likely be operating at less than 100 percent. For his part, St. Brown told Birkett that he wants to go through a pregame workout to see how the injury affects his ability to cut and change directions before making a decision on whether he can play. If St. Brown is forced to miss his first game of the season, Tom Kennedy would likely step in as the primary replacement at slot receiver after he recorded four catches for 36 yards on four targets following St. Brown's departure in the loss to Green Bay.

Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Sits out practice Monday
Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) didn't practice Monday.As expected, St. Brown was idle to begin the practice week ahead of Thursday's game against the Cowboys. St. Brown was injured early in the first quarter of last Thursday's loss to the Packers and was diagnosed with a low-ankle sprain. If St. Brown is unable to play Week 14, Tom Kennedy would likely be the next man up as the slot receiver, but Jameson Williams should again be the biggest beneficiary in terms of target volume.

Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Looking iffy for Week 14
Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell said Monday that he doesn't expect to have a clear idea on whether Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) will be available for Thursday's matchup with the Cowboys until game day, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports.St. Brown exited Detroit's Thanksgiving Day loss to the Packers with a left low-ankle sprain, an injury that, while not overly serious, could put the wideout at risk of missing a game or two. The Lions will post their first Week 14 injury report Monday, which will provide more insight into St. Brown's health as Thursday's game approaches. While St. Brown doesn't necessarily need to practice this week in order to play Thursday, even limited participation at some point would increase his odds of being able to suit up against Dallas.

Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Reportedly dealing with low-ankle sprain
Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) is likely to be considered week-to-week as the Detroit Lions approach their stretch run, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.Per Pelissero, St. Brown is believed to have suffered a low-ankle sprain during Thursday's 31-24 loss to the Packers and thus isn't expected to land on IR. At this point, the star wideout's status for the Lions' Dec. 4 game against the Cowboys is cloudy, as he continues to be evaluated. If St. Brown is unable to play against Dallas, however, Jameson Williams would be in line to lead Detroit's Week 14 WR corps, with Isaac TeSlaa and Tom Kennedy also in the mix to see added snaps/targets.

Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: May miss time due to ankle injury

Considering Campbell's comments, St. Brown appears in danger of missing next Thursday's game against the Cowboys and potentially time beyond that.
