Matthew Stafford said doctors have not given him a firm timeline on how many games he should expect to miss with the back injury that has kept him out the last two weeks.

"I think for me it’s a fluid situation and just something I’m monitoring and trying to make sure that when I’m back out there I’m ready to go and obviously, l’m doing, like I said earlier, everything I possibly can to get out there as fast as I can.
