The Detroit Lions listed two players on the final injury report ahead of their Christmas Day road game vs. the Minnesota Vikings.

#Lions Injury Update: S Thomas Harper is being evaluated pursuant to the Concussion Protocol. The Lions already sustained one injury today along its defensive interior, as defensive tackle Alim McNeill exited with an abdomen injury and was listed questionable to return.

There's plenty of blame to go around for the Detroit Lions' 2025 flop, but it starts with Brad Holmes and Dan Campbell.

The Detroit Lions put All-Pro safety Kerby Joseph on injured reserve Saturday, ending hope he could come back from a knee injury that limited him to six games this season. The Lions (8-6) made the move a day before hosting the AFC North-leading Pittsburgh Steelers (8-6).

As the Lions prepare to avenge their loss against the Vikings from earlier this season on Nov. 2, another big name popped up on Detroit's initial estimated injury report this week. Star receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown was listed with a knee injury and with a did not practice designation on Monday.

It was a dreadful performance from Dan Campbell's squad, with Detroit committing six turnovers – yes, six turnovers for the first time since 2015 – and averaging a measly 3.61 yards per play. It marked the Lions’ sixth-worst offensive efficiency in a game since 2010 (and their very worst efficiency in a contest since 2020).
