Nov 23 WR Calvin Johnson was listed with hand and knee injuries Monday. Asked if Johnson would play against the Packers, coach Jim Schwartz said: "We'll see." Yahoo! Sports

Nov 16 Johnson led the Lions on Sunday with eight catches for 84 yards.

Recommendation: It's good to see that Johnson's slow day a week ago was an abberration and not a new trend. The more he and rookie quarterback Matthew Stafford (knee) share the field, the better rapport they'll create. And each of their stats will be better for it.
