Detroit Lions WR Calvin Johnson misses practice

ALLEN PARK -- Calvin Johnson missed another practice Thursday when the Detroit Lions reconvened for their first full practice of the week, but that shouldn't affect his availability for Monday night's game against the New Orleans Saints.

The receiver has missed one or two days of practice per week for much of the season, as he plays through some ankle pain, and said earlier Thursday that's his health is fine.

"I'm feeling alright," he said. "Leave it at that."

Johnson's production has petered in recent weeks, including registering just four catches for 60 yards the past two weeks combined.
