T.J. Hockenson (knee) was limited in practice on Thursday.
He upgraded from a Wednesday DNP. The fourth-year tight end should be considered on the optimistic side of questionable, as he's been managed on Wednesdays throughout this season. He'll be on the TE1 line against the Dolphins, but Detroit's pass offense has not been trending in a good direction for his output of late.
Josh Reynolds (knee) was limited in practice on Thursday.
He upgraded from a DNP on Wednesday. Reynolds should be in good shape to play in Week 8 against the Dolphins as he has had his injuries managed often this season, oftentimes not even getting on to the practice field until Friday. But with the Lions pass offense suddenly struggling, he's less-appealing as a FLEX option as he was earlier in the season.
Amon-Ra St. Brown (protocol) was limited in Thursday's practice.
St. Brown did not, by his coach's words, actually suffer a concussion in Week 7. But as part of the concussion protocol he is not yet cleared to return to practice in full yet. Look for St. Brown to suit up in Week 8 unless there's something we don't know about here.
D'Andre Swift (shoulder) is practicing in full Thursday.
Sure seems like we've seen the last absence from this shoulder injury for Swift. He'll be teed up as an RB1 against the Dolphins in Week 8 after missing three games in addition to the bye week. We doubt he will be on the final injury report at this point.
it seems like every players gets healthy enough to play us
