Detroit Lions’ DJ Reader discusses his foundation’s Thanksgiving event
Detroit Lions’ DJ Reader talks about his foundation’s Thanksgiving event at Pope Francis Bridge Housing Center in Detroit on Friday, Nov. 21, 2025.
The Detroit Lions may eventually return center Frank Ragnow, but they’re still pretty beat up for the time being – and it’s only getting worse.
Star wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown has been ruled out for the Lions after getting rolled up on in the first quarter.
The Lions are taking on the Green Bay Packers in a critical NFC North showdown at Ford Field in Detroit on Thursday, Nov. 27. Kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m ET, and the game is on Fox.
The Lions are without center Graham Glasgow and wide receiver Kalif Raymond for the game, Glasgow dealing with a knee injury and Raymond with an ankle injury he suffered during Sunday’s 34-27 overtime win over the New York Giants.
Additionally, the Lions are without edge rusher Joshua Paschal and tight end Brock Wright, leaving Detroit without its first or second-string tight end with starter Sam LaPorta likely out for the rest of the season. However, they will return cornerback Terrion Arnold, who has missed the last two games recovering from a concussion.
As for Ragnow, he’s likely not playing until at least Week 15, when the Lions face off against the Los Angeles Rams in Inglewood, California.

Lions vs Packers injury updates
This section will be updated after kickoff.
The Lions have downgraded receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown to out following his ankle injury in the first quarter.
Lions receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown was ruled as questionable with an ankle injury suffered in the first quarter.
Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown went to the ground after the first play of the Lions’ second possession in the first quarter. He eventually got up and limped off the field, favoring his right foot, eventually heading to the locker room.
We await updates on his condition.
The Lions have listed seven players as inactive ahead of their Thursday game.
- OL Miles Frazier.
- OL Graham Glasgow.
- S Kerby Joseph.
- DL Tyler Lacy.
- WR Kalif Raymond.
- DL Mekhi Wingo.
- TE Brock Wright.
Offensive tackles Penei Sewell and Taylor Decker, who were listed on Wednesday’s injury report as questionable, are active and expected to play. The Lions will also return cornerback Terrion Arnold and edge rusher Marcus Davenport, who are active.
Is Frank Ragnow playing today?
No. The Lions just announced that the formerly-retired center is coming back, but he won’t be on the field for this week against the Packers.
The former All-Pro will need some time to get back up to speed, but once he does, he’ll give a huge boost to the Lions’ offensive line.
