Dan Campbell says there's a chance we see Anthony Lucas play this week with no DJ Wonnum. Doesn't sound like Hassanein will get the call up.

STATEMENT FROM JACK CAMPBELL My family and I want to sincerely thank everyone for the overwhelming amount of love, prayers, and support we’ve received over the past few days. It means more to us than words can express. I’m incredibly encouraged by the progress I’ve made in such a short period of time. I have full movement in my lower body, and I’m continuing to make progress with movement in my upper body. I know there’s still work ahead, but I remain very optimistic. I’m taking things one day at a time, staying positive, and focusing on getting better. My faith in God has never been stronger. I know He has a plan for me, and I trust in that plan. I know there may be challenges ahead, but with my faith, my family, and so many people in my corner, I know we’ll get through this. I especially want to thank the athletic trainers and medical personnel who responded and cared for me on the field. I know those were difficult moments, and I’m incredibly grateful for the professionalism, compassion, and care you showed me. The way you handled everything and looked after me when I needed it most is something I’ll never forget. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. I also can’t say enough about the incredible care I’ve received from the medical team at Henry Ford Hospital and the Detroit Lions medical staff. They’ve been amazing to me and my family throughout this process, and I’m truly grateful for everything they’ve done. To my teammates, coaches, and everyone in the Lions organization, I want you to know how much I love and appreciate you. This team is a family to me, and the way everyone has been there for me means everything. I’m proud to be a Detroit Lion and couldn’t ask to be surrounded by a better group of people. One thing I’ve learned about Detroit is that this city is built on toughness, resilience, and grit. That’s exactly how I’m going to approach this challenge. Please continue to keep me and my family in your prayers. We feel the love, and I can’t thank everyone enough. God is good. My faith is strong. Jack Campbell

With a victory against the #Dolphins on Sunday, #Lions Jared Goff will reach 100 wins in his career (regular + postseason). The Dolphins would also be the 30th different franchise Goff has beaten. He's 0-3 against them to date. #OnePride

Aidan Hutchinson on who steps up on edge in DJ Wonnum's absence: "If I was a betting man I’d say Ahmed’s probably getting his opportunity this week." 👀 "I know Ahmed is just itching to get out there, man. He can’t wait." Derrick Moore likely in line for bigger role as well.

Detroit Lions RT Blake Miller has earned a 77.3 PFF pass-blocking grade this season, ranking 11th among 61 qualifying offensive tackles. That leads all rookie OTs this season and is the fifth-highest pass-blocking grade among rookie OTs since 2018.
