Lions inactives for Week 16: D’Andre Swift, Jermar Jefferson both out

There will be no return from D’Andre Swift to the Detroit Lions lineup on Boxing Day. The Lions running back will remain on the sidelines when the Lions face the Atlanta Falcons in Week 16.

Swift highlights the Lions’ inactive player list. He’s now missed the last four games since suffering a shoulder injury.

Swift is joined on the list by rookie RB Jermar Jefferson. With Jamaal Williams returning to action, expect a healthy split between Williams and Craig Reynolds, who has been sensational in his first two games in Detroit.

The other Lions inactives:

  • S Jalen Elliott
  • OLB Julian Okwara
  • LB Josh Woods

For the Falcons, the only notable inactive is WR Tajae Sharpe.
