The Detroit Lions had a pleasant problem ahead of Sunday’s Week 15 matchup with the visiting Buffalo Bills. The Lions coaching staff had to come up with several healthy scratches for the game after dealing with multiple injuries over the last few weeks.
Only one player was ruled out on the final injury status report. Linebacker Trevor Nowaske was sidelined with a concussion. Nowaske was the only Lions player who carried any sort of injury designation into the game.
That means all the other inactive are healthy scratches for Detroit. Many are the usual suspects, notably the offensive linemen:
OL Giovanni Manu
OL Kayode Awosika
OL Colby Sorsdal
DL Myles Adams
DL Brodric Martin
CB Emmanuel Moseley
Martin and Adams get bumped down due to healthy returns by Levi Onwuzurike, DJ Reader and Josh Paschal.
