The Detroit Lions (8-8) and Chicago Bears (11-5) were back on the practice field on Thursday in advance of their Week 18 matchup this Sunday.<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s take a look at the latest injury report and get you up to date with what we know. Note: Any changes from the last injury report will be bolded.<\/p>\n
Colon missing two practices with a lingering wrist injury he has previously played through is unusual, and could be a sign he re-aggravated it.<\/p>\n
McNeill showed up on last week\u2019s injury report, then exited Week 17 very early and has not practiced since. His status for this Sunday\u2019s game is very much up in the air.<\/p>\n
St. Brown hopes to be able to play this weekend, per Campbell, and a return to practice on Thursday sets him up for that. He\u2019ll need to participate on Friday in some capacity, but signs are pointing up. St. Brown talked to our Jeremy Reisman in the locker room on Thursday.<\/p>\n
\u201cI feel solid. I would say a little banged up, but good enough to go, so that\u2019s all that really matters.\u201d<\/p>\n
St. Brown would go on to add that he doesn\u2019t believe there is any long-term injury risk involved for him with his current ailment:<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t think so. Obviously, there\u2019s risk in any game you play with any injury, but to answer your question, I don\u2019t think so.\u201d<\/p>\n
Decker getting in a second practice this week is a good sign that he\u2019ll be able to finish out the season on the football field.<\/p>\n
Mahogany and Awosika returned from their illnesses, a good sign that they\u2019re likely to be available on Sunday.<\/p>\n
Manu is closing out his injury evaluation window, but it\u2019s still not entirely clear if he\u2019ll be activated and play this weekend. Sewell\u2019s health could be a factor in determining that.<\/p>\n
Anzalone and Harper both returned to practice on Thursday, suggesting they\u2019re progressing through the NFL injury protocols. That being said, there are still hurdles to clear, and there\u2019s no guarantee either play, especially Harper, who is dealing with his second concussion this season.<\/p>\n
Maddox getting in back-to-back practices after missing last week\u2019s game is a good sign he\u2019s on track to return, though there is no guarantee, as we\u2019ve seen many times this season.<\/p>\n
Note: Starters are bolded.<\/p>\n
