Detroit Lions

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (knee) is listed as questionable for Thursday afternoon's divisional tilt against the Chicago Bears. After bringing in six of his seven targets for 62 yards last weekend, the star wideout popped up on the injury report on Monday with a knee injury. St. Brown sat out during Monday's practice and was able to improve his status each day and capped off the week with a full session on Wednesday. However, the Lions still opted to list the USC product as questionable. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status ahead of Thursday's kickoff but seeing him practice in full on Wednesday is a promising sign. After scoring just 4.3 PPR points in the season opener, St. Brown has gone on to average a stellar 19.9 PPR points per game since Week 2 and should always be viewed as a reliable WR1 in all matchups.

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Thursday's divisional match against the Chicago Bears. Montgomery sustained this shoulder injury during last weekend's victory over the Indianapolis Colts. The veteran RB opened the week as a non-participant during practice but was able to upgrade his stats each day and logged a full session earlier on Wednesday. Despite this, the team is still listing Montgomery as questionable. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status ahead of kickoff but seeing him return to practice in full participation today is a positive sign. If the 27-year-old is unable to suit up Thursday afternoon, sophomore running back Jahmyr Gibbs would see a heavy workload and have RB1 upside this weekend.

The Detroit Lions have placed wide receiver Kalif Raymond (foot) on injured reserve, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Raymond suffered the injury last Sunday and could miss the minimum four games before returning in Week 17. At the very latest, Detroit expects to have him back for the NFL playoffs. The 30-year-old receiver has played in 11 games this season, catching 16 passes for 204 yards and three touchdowns. Fantasy managers can stay away from Raymond as long as both Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams remain healthy down the stretch.

Detroit Lions wide receiver/kick returner Kalif Raymond (foot) was listed as a non-participant in Tuesday's practice for the second straight day, making it more unlikely that he won't be available for the team this Thursday on Thanksgiving versus the division-rival Chicago Bears. The 30-year-old is getting a second opinion on the foot injury he suffered in the Week 12 win over the Indianapolis Colts, and the Lions already expressed earlier this week that they don't love Raymond's chances of suiting up on a short week. They'll most likely hold him out against the Bears and hope he can make it back to play in Week 13 for another divisional showdown against the Green Bay Packers. His primary value to Detroit comes as their top punt returner, as he has only 16 receptions for 204 yards and two TDs on 21 targets in 11 games in 2024.

After being listed as a DNP on Monday, Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (knee) was listed as limited for the team's walk-through practice on Tuesday. St. Brown is dealing with a knee injury heading into the Week 13 Thanksgiving game on Thursday against the division-rival Chicago Bears, but he's planning on being available. The 25-year-old pass-catcher just broke a streak of eight straight games scoring a touchdown in the Week 12 win over the Indianapolis Colts when he had six catches for 62 yards without a score. If active, St. Brown is a must-start WR1 in fantasy in one of the best offenses in football. He ranks seventh among all wideouts with 14.9 half-PPR point per game, and his nine TDs are second to only Ja'Marr Chase's 12 among receivers. The Bears defense has allowed the sixth-fewest half-PPR points to opposing receivers this year, so St. Brown will have his work cut out for him.
