The Detroit Lions will be without one of their star defenders in Week 8 against the New York Giants, as the team officially ruled out cornerback Darius Slay with a hamstring injury on Friday.
Slay did not participate in any practices this week.
On the bright side, defensive tackle Damon Harrison Sr. returned to action, after sitting out on Thursday with a groin injury. Fullback Nick Bawden — who was limited on Thursday with a foot injury — was also a full participant. Both are listed as questionable for the game against the Giants.
