Overview

• Safety Daniel Thomas (forearm surgery), running back Sione Vaki (groin) and linebacker Zach Cunningham (hamstring) were ruled out after missing Friday's practice.
• Thomas and Vaki are core special-team contributors, while Cunningham has logged heavy special-teams snaps and depth linebacker duties.
• Decker missed all week of practice due to a shoulder issue yet is listed as questionable and is still expected to start at left tackle.
• Edge rusher Al-Quadin Muhammad returned to practice Thursday and Friday and is expected to play opposite Aidan Hutchinson.
• With Thomas out at gunner and Vaki out on returns, the Lions are evaluating options such as Khalil Dorsey, Kalif Raymond, Grant Stuard, Craig Reynolds or Jacob Saylors for kick and punt units.
