Overview
- On his St. Brown Podcast, the Lions receiver said he is "not a fan" of playing on Christmas because it takes him away from family traditions like watching kids open gifts.
- Detroit plays at Minnesota on Christmas Day at 4:30 p.m. ET, and St. Brown said the required travel makes the holiday assignment more frustrating.
- Despite his complaint, he noted the benefit of another primetime stage and said he enjoys playing in Minnesota.
- St. Brown is dealing with a knee injury and was officially listed as questionable for the game, with reports indicating he is expected to play barring a pregame setback.
- Detroit faces a narrow playoff path that requires winning its final two games and the Packers dropping theirs, a pressure heightened by recent offensive pass interference calls that wiped out late Lions scores.
