Lions injury update: 2 players out, 5 limited in Thursday’s practice

The Detroit Lions posted their first injury report for the practice week ahead of Monday night’s matchup with the Packers in Green Bay. Two players sat out Thursday’s session, while five other Lions were limited with various injuries.

Both players who were out we’re sidelined with concussions. Wide receiver Tyrell Williams and defensive end Kevin Strong are in the concussion protocol with brain injuries.

The five players who were limited include both starting outside linebackers and the top two running backs. Trey Flowers and Romeo Okwara were each listed with shoulder issues. Defensive end Michael Brockers joined the OLBs as limited, and the veteran is also dealing with a shoulder problem.

The RBs, D’Andre Swift and Jamaal Williams, were limited with a groin and chest injury, respectively.

On a more positive front, DE Levi Onwuzurike was a full participant. He was inactive for the Week 1 game against the 49ers with his ongoing hip injury.
