Most of the Lions players on the active roster who were out of practice on Wednesday were resting, but there are a few players dealing with injuries.
That group includes safety Brian Branch, who is listed with a calf injury. He did not miss a snap in last Sunday’s loss to the Bills, so the best case for the Lions is that Wednesday is a maintenance day.
Left guard Graham Glasgow also went the whole way against Buffalo, but he was out on Wednesday with a knee injury. Running back David Montgomery (knee) was also out as he solicits other opinions about the extent of his injury.
Left tackle Taylor Decker, center Frank Ragnow, defensive tackle DJ Reader, defensive end Za’Darius Smith, wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown, and right guard Kevin Zeitler all rested. Defensive back Ifeatu Melifonwu (hand) was a full participant after being designated for return.
