Kenny Golladay among 4 Lions out, Jeff Okudah 1 of 6 limited at Thursday’s practice
The practice injury report from Allen Park was a meaty one on Thursday. It’s not the kind of meat Lions fans want to chew on with just one more practice before Sunday’s Week 1 opener at Ford Field against the Chicago Bears.
Four players sat out the practice altogether according to the team’s official injury report. Most notable is starting WR Kenny Golladay, who was a limited participant in Wednesday’s session. Golladay is working through a hamstring injury he suffered during Wednesday’s practice. Coach Matt Patricia indicated the Lions “were just trying to make sure we did a good job of taking a look at it.”
The others who did not participate:
Starting RT Halapoulivaati Vaitai (foot)
Safety and special teams standout C.J. Moore (hamstring)
TE Hunter Bryant (hamstring)
Neither Moore nor Bryant has practiced this week. Vaitai was limited on Wednesday before sitting out Thursday.
