    Colon (wrist) has been ruled out for Detroit's matchup against the Vikings on Thursday.

    Rogers (quad) is listed as a full participant on Thursday's estimated practice report, Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com reports.

    Rogers suffered a quad injury during Las Vegas' loss to Houston in Week 16 and was limited in practice Wednesday, but it appears he's already recovered and is ready for Sunday's game against the Giants. Barring any setbacks, Rogers will resume operating as the Raiders' starting right guard Week 17, with Jackson Powers-Johnson (ankle) still on IR.

    Mahogany (lower leg) will play in Detroit's matchup versus the Vikings on Thursday.

  • Lions' Marcus Davenport: Active to face Vikings

    Davenport (shoulder) is active for Thursday's contest against Minnesota.

  • Lions' Al-Quadin Muhammad: Good to go Thursday

    Muhammad (abdomen) is active for Thursday's game against the Vikings.

    Lions' Taylor Decker: Won't play Thursday

    Decker (shoulder) has been ruled out for Detroit's matchup versus the Vikings on Thursday.

  • Amik Robertson CB | WAS

    Lions' Amik Robertson: Good to go vs. Minnesota

    Robertson was able to play through a hand injury against the Steelers in Week 16, and the sixth-year pro will do so again Christmas Day. He has accumulated 31 tackles (25 solo), nine pass defenses and one forced fumble in the eight games since the Lions' Week 8 bye.

  • Brett Rypien QB | MIN

    Vikings' Brett Rypien: Emergency QB for Week 17

    Rypien (coach's decision) is inactive for Thursday's game against the Lions but will act as Minnesota's emergency No. 3 quarterback.

    Rypien will get a chance to operate as the Vikings' emergency third-string quarterback with starter J.J. McCarthy (hand) ruled out for Thanksgiving Day. In order for Rypien to take the field, both Max Brosmer and John Wolford would have to be forced out versus Detroit due to injury, illness or ejection.

  • Lions' David Montgomery: Suiting up Thursday

    Montgomery (illness) is listed as active Thursday in Minnesota.

    Montgomery missed Tuesday's walkthrough due to an illness and followed it up with a limited walkthrough Wednesday before the Lions listed him as questionable for Week 17 action. Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reported Thursday morning that Montgomery was expected to suit up, which now has come to pass. Working solidly behind No. 1 RB Jahmyr Gibbs over the last six games, Montgomery has reached double-digit touches only once during that stretch en route to 241 yards from scrimmage and three rushing TDs on 43 touches.
