DeAndre Levy expected to miss 11th straight game

The DeAndre Levy saga continues.

Levy still has not returned to practice on a full-time basis from the knee injury he suffered in a Week 1 win over the Indianapolis Colts, and the Detroit Lions are preparing for him to miss his 11th straight game Sunday against the New Orleans Saints (1 p.m., Fox).

Levy's game status has not been finalized, but the linebacker has played in just two of a possible 27 games since signing a four-year contract extension in August 2015 and still is showing signs of rust in his third week back at practice.
