Detroit Lions’ injury report for Monday Night Football
The Detroit Lions host the Las Vegas Raiders on Monday Night Football in an attempt to avenge their humiliating loss to the Baltimore Ravens. The Lions would go to 6-2 on the year with a victory, which would be fantastic form going into their bye week. The Lions issued their first injury report of the week a little while ago, and as you can see below, they are still having some problems.
AUTOMATION (AP) — On Monday night, the Detroit Lions, who are currently atop the NFC North, and the Las Vegas Raiders will have a similar opponent.
Both sides are attempting to recover from crushing defeats.
Detroit lost by 32 points at Baltimore, bringing an end to their four-game winning streak. Before dropping a game by eighteen points at Chicago, Las Vegas had won two in a row.
Prior to a humiliating loss to the Ravens, the Lions (5-2) were matched for the best record in the league. However, Jared Goff said the setback wasn’t a big statement about the team’s condition.
Every club in the league has roller coasters at times, and we’re no exception,” Goff remarked. However, everything is “Steady Eddie” in here and ready to react this week.
Jimmy Garoppolo, who was out of commission last week and for the second half of the previous game due to a back ailment, might give the Raiders (3-4) a boost.
“We’re very hopeful as long as there is nothing that goes the other way,” head coach Josh McDaniels stated.
NOT A CRIME
In seven of their last eight games going back to the previous season, the Raiders have failed to score more than 20 points. Only a late safety helped Las Vegas surpass the record in its 21-17 victory against New England two weeks prior.
“Quality of play does not matter in football,” Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams stated. “Your playing ability is what matters.”
With an average of only 16 points, the offensively struggling team is ranked 30th in scoring. Despite starting All-Pro Josh Jacobs, the rushing champion from the previous season, in the backfield, the Raiders rank last in rushing and 27th overall in total offense. They only manage 68.6 yards per game on the ground.
