Lions rule out Hockenson, but all dozen questionable players active vs. Broncos

Denver — All things considered, the roster situation could have been much worse for the Detroit Lions. As it turns out, the flu outbreak that spread through the team's facility this week won't keep a single player out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Denver Broncos.

The Lions had listed a dozen players as questionable coming into the day, including 10 with illness as at least part of the reason, but each of those 12 are active for the matchup. That's particularly good news for the offensive and defensive lines, where most of the starters had been among that group.
