Allen Park — This deep into the season, the Detroit Lions are as close to full strength as a team could hope to be heading into Sunday's matchup with Jacksonville. The Lions ruled out just two players — guard Evan Brown and defensive end Julian Okwara — on an otherwise clean injury report.
The continued absence of Brown, who is dealing with an ankle injury, will sting. He had been performing well filling in for starter Halapoulivaati Vaitai at right guard, prior to suffering an ankle injury. That will leave the Lions to lean on a third-string option once again.
