Inactives
Running back Ameer Abdullah, defensive tackle A'Shawn Robinson and defensive end Romeo Okwara are the notable members of tonight's inactive list for Detroit.
First impressions
In his Lions debut, rooking running back Kerryon Johnson will have the opportunity to become the first Detroit rusher to break the 100-yard mark since Reggie Bush ran for 117 yards vs. the Packers on Thanksgiving 2013.
Lions head coach Matt Patricia will not only be making his debut in the Motor City, the ex-Patriot will also be the seventh coordinator from the Bill Belichick coaching tree to be handed the reigns of an NFL franchise - and hopes to be the first one to do so with a winning record.
