Lions Week 13 injury update: Steps forward for Jonah Jackson, David Montgomery
After an initial practice report on Wednesday with a few key pieces not participating in full, Thursday saw the Detroit Lions get a lot closer to full strength. In fact, only one player was not a full participant due to injury.
Linebacker Alex Anzalone continues to sit out with a hand/wrist injury. Head coach Dan Campbell indicated earlier this week that Anzalone is not expected to play in the Week 13 matchup in New Orleans against the Saints, Anzalone’s former team.
The only other player who was not a full participant was center Frank Ragnow, who took his customary veteran rest day on Thursday.
Running back David Montgomery (foot), left guard Jonah Jackson (wrist) and safety Tracy Walker (shoulder) all upgraded from limited on Wednesday to full participation on Thursday. Rookie QB Hendon Hooker was also listed as a full participant as he works to get activated from the NFI list.
That development bodes well for Jackson, Montgomery and Walker to all play in Week 13, barring any final setbacks on Friday.
