Lions Week 17 inactive players include QB Jared Goff

After being listed as doubtful to play in Detroit’s Week 17 matchup with the Seattle Seahawks, the Lions officially ruled out quarterback Jared Goff for Sunday’s game. Goff is one of the Lions’ seven inactive players for the late-afternoon kickoff.

Goff will miss his second straight game, this time with a knee injury. He was out for Week 16 while on the reserve/COVID-19 list. Tim Boyle will start in his place.

The other inactive players for the Lions don’t feature any surprises.

OLB Rashod Berry

FB Jason Cabinda

DE Jashon Cornell

S Jalen Elliott

OT Will Holden

RB Jermar Jefferson

Berry was ruled out on Saturday with an illness. Cabinda and Holden have been injured. Cornell was activated from the team’s non-football injury/illness list this week but will not make his 2021 debut in the penultimate game.
