Detroit Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown (knee) was limited during practice Wednesday, Dec. 24, and is listed as questionable for Week 17. The Lions only held a walkthrough Wednesday, so his participation is an estimation.
| Footballguys view: Against the Vikings on Christmas, St. Brown is going to deal with another annoying injury. He's a WR1 for Fantasy GMs in a game the Lions should be able to control early. |

Lions | David Montgomery listed as questionable Wed Dec 24, 03:33 PM
Detroit Lions RB David Montgomery (illness) was limited during practice Wednesday, Dec. 24, and is listed as questionable for Week 17. The Lions only held a walkthrough Wednesday, so his participation is an estimation.
| Footballguys view: We like Montgomery as an RB3/flex option against the Vikings on Christmas. Montgomery rushed four times for 14 yards in the Lions' Week 16 loss to the Steelers. With their playoff hopes barely holding on, Montgomery might get more work against a hapless Vikings team. |

Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown landed on the team's injury report on Monday. He was listed as a non-participant in the team's first practice ahead of Thursday's game against the Vikings.
| Footballguys view: St. Brown, who was flagged for offensive pass interference on the final play of Sunday's game, is listed with a knee injury. We'll watch for more in the coming days, but there hasn't been much concern expressed by local media outlets, and this could be maintenance with a short turnaround. |

Lions | Jared Goff comes through for fantasy managers in loss to Steelers Sun Dec 21, 09:44 PM
Jared Goff finished Sunday's 29-24 loss to the Steelers, completing 34 of his 54 pass attempts for 364 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions.
| Footballguys view: As NFL.com suggested, working behind a makeshift offensive line, Goff was sacked three times, and he uncharacteristically missed several targets. Detroit went 6 of 15 on third downs and just 1 of 4 in the red zone in a five-point loss. Still, the game was a success for fantasy investors who rolled Goff, who was QB5 through the late-afternoon games with 26.5 fantasy points. |

Lions | Jameson Williams puts up big numbers against the Rams Sun Dec 14, 10:05 PM
Jameson Williams caught a 31-yard TD pass and had seven receptions for 134 yards during Sunday's 41-34 loss to the Rams.
| Footballguys view: Williams' 26.4 fantasy points ranked third through Sunday's late-afternoon window. That number is even more impressive, coming on the same day his teammate, Amon-Ra St. Brown, scored 41.4, as Jared Goff and Detroit's passing game met great success on explosive plays early in the game. Detroit has alternated wins and losses since Week 5, endangering its hopes for a third straight playoff berth. A win against the Steelers in Week 16 will be a necessity to have a shot at the postseason, so expect plenty of offense in a favorable matchup against the Steelers. |
Lions | Jared Goff passes for three touchdowns in loss to Rams Sun Dec 14, 09:59 PM
Jared Goff passed for 338 yards and three TDs in Sunday's 41-34 loss to the Rams.
| Footballguys view: As NFL.com noted, Goff shredded L.A., making pinpoint plays downfield to Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams. The Lions moved up and down the field with explosives early. When those dried up, and the offensive line became leaky, the Lions couldn't move the ball in the second half, only finding paydirt when down two scores late. With Sunday's loss, the Lions fall to 8-5, needing to win out and get some help to return to the postseason. The good news? A favorable passing matchup against the Steelers awaits in Week 16. |

Lions | Amon-Ra St. Brown dominates in losing effort Sun Dec 14, 09:53 PM
Amon-Ra St. Brown scorched his hometown team for 163 yards and two touchdowns on 13 receptions in Detroit's 41-34 loss to the Rams.
| Footballguys view: According to ESPN.com, St. Brown's 41.4 fantasy points set a new personal best. He now has six games of 30-plus points since the beginning of 2023, tied for second and behind only Ja'Marr Chase (7). Better still, St. Brown is heading into a favorable Week 16 matchup against the Steelers. |
