Overview

- Jeremiah Masoli will start at quarterback for the Lions after Nathan Rourke was sidelined with a core injury sustained in last week’s defeat.
- Winnipeg will be without star running back Brady Oliveira, who was ruled out with a shoulder injury, prompting backups to step into the rush attack.
