Lions inactives vs. Rams: Dean Marlowe a healthy scratch, Jason Cabinda out
- Oops!Something went wrong.Please try again later.
Three of the four Detroit Lions listed as questionable on the team’s final practice injury report this week are active for Sunday’s matchup with the Los Angeles Rams. The one who isn’t: fullback Jason Cabinda.
Cabinda is out with a hip injury. He will be replaced by tight end Brock Wright, who was called up from the practice squad for the trip to Los Angeles. OLB Trey Flowers, TE T.J. Hockenson and RB D’Andre Swift will all play despite being questionable with various maladies.
Cabinda and safety Dean Marlowe are the only notable scratches for the Lions. Marlowe is a healthy scratch at safety, being replaced by practice squad promotion Jalen Elliott. The veteran Marlowe has not played well in coverage recently, and the Rams potent passing offense made head coach Dan Campbell opt for a change on the back end.
The rest of the Lions inactives for Sunday’s 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff:
