Lions inactive players for Week 2 include two DTs

Lions Brodric Martin Isaiah Buggs

Lions fans will have to wait a little longer before seeing the Detroit debut of third-round pick, Brodric Martin. The defensive tackle is one of five Lions who are inactive for the Week 2 matchup in Ford Field with the Seattle Seahawks.

Martin and Isaiah Buggs, who was projected to be the starting nose tackle for most of the offseason, are both inactive. The beefy duo was also inactive in the Week 1 win over the Kansas City Chiefs.

With left tackle Taylor Decker and cornerback Emmanuel Moseley already ruled out with injuries, there was only one other player who needed to be inactive. The Lions coaching staff chose undrafted rookie CB Steven Gilmore.

Defensive lineman Josh Paschal and cornerback Khalil Dorsey were placed on I.R. on Saturday, so they are not inactive declarations for Sunday’s game.
