Rodriguez (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Commanders.

Although Rodriguez has been given the questionable tag for Sunday's game, NFL reporter Jordan Schultz reported in late October that the Lions are aiming to have the 2022 sixth-rounder return for Week 11 against the Eagles on Sunday, Nov. 16. Rodriguez will have to be activated from injured reserve before being cleared to play, but he was limited in practice during Week 10 prep, so the Lions are likely to give the fourth-year pro at least one more week before clearing him to make his 2025 debut. Rodriguez is in the final stages of his recovery from a torn ACL that he sustained in November of 2024.

Davis (quadriceps) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bills, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

After missing Week 9 with a quad injury, Davis managed to log limited practices all three days this week. Despite the limited capacity, participating in all practices is a positive sign for the starting strong safety's chances of playing Sunday. If he is unable to go, Dante Trader is next up to start opposite Minkah Fitzpatrick.

Paschal (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Washington.

Paschal's 21-day practice window to be activated from the reserve/non-football injury list opened Wednesday. He logged a trio of limited practices during Week 10 prep, but he hasn't progressed enough in his recovery to be activated off the NFI list ahead of Sunday's road contest, so Week 11 against the Eagles on Sunday, Nov. 16 is his next opportunity to make his 2025 debut. Paschal is in the final stages of his recovery from a lingering back injury from the offseason.

Reynolds (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Commanders.

Reynolds logged a trio of limited practices during Week 10 prep, and he has a chance of returning from a one-game absence due to a hamstring injury. Even if he were cleared to play against Washington, Reynolds carries very little value from a fantasy perspective for as long as he operates behind Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery. Sione Vaki is slated to step up as the Lions' RB3 if Reynolds is unable to play Sunday.

Robinson (concussion) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Bills, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

The 2024 first-round pick was able to log a limited practice Friday, but he is still unlikely to be able to suit up for Sunday's game. If Robinson is unable to go, the Dolphins will have to rely more on their rotational defensive end Matthew Judon.

Barner (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Arizona, but he seems likely to play after logging a full practice Friday, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.

The quick return to full participation confirms that Barner's injury isn't serious, though the Seahawks weren't quite ready to remove him from their injury report. He hasn't missed a game this season and should fill his usual role as the No. 1 tight end, which has resulted in four receiving touchdowns and one rushing score despite averaging just 3.25 targets per game.

Saylors (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Commanders.

A back issue prevented Saylors from participating in the final two practices of Week 10 prep, and the injury is severe enough for him to be sidelined for Sunday's road contest. Craig Reynolds (hamstring) is currently listed as questionable, and if he were to join Saylors on the Lions' inactive list, then Sione Vaki would serve as the Lions' RB3 behind Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery. Saylors' next opportunity to suit up is Week 11 against the Eagles on Sunday, Nov. 16.

Kupp (hamstring/heel) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Arizona, but he appears on track to play after upgrading to full practice participation Friday, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.

Kupp missed a Week 9 rout of the Commanders after injuring his hamstring last Thursday, but it seems he was correct when he downplayed the severity, as he's now looking good to play just 10 days after the initial injury. Seattle's wideout depth is depleted, including No. 3 receiver Tory Horton (shin) being listed as doubtful, which means Kupp could get plenty of snaps even with the addition of Rashid Shaheed.

Joseph (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Commanders.

Joseph is set to miss a third consecutive game due to a knee injury he sustained during the Lions' Week 6 loss to the Chiefs. Thomas Harper and Erick Hallett are candidates to start at safety alongside Brian Branch in Joseph's absence. Joseph will aim to progress enough in his recovery to play in Week 11 against the Eagles on Sunday, Nov. 16.

Douglas (foot) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Bills, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

Douglas failed to log a practice this week and will likely not play Sunday against his former team. Ethan Bonner and Jason Marshall are in line to split snaps at outside corner in the absence of Douglas. If the 30-year-old cornerback ends up ruled out, he will have his next chance to return to the field in Week 11 against the Commanders.
