The Lions will enter Thursday’s Christmas Day matchup with the Vikings facing slim playoff odds in a must-win game. And if they’re going to keep those playoff hopes alive, Detroit would certainly like to have star receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown suiting up.
But will he? That’s the question heading into Thursday.
The Lions receiver had just four receptions in Week 16’s loss for the Steelers. And when it came time to prepare for the Vikings on a short week, St. Brown picked up a questionable designation that was listed as a knee injury.
St. Brown managers in championship games and Lions fans shouldn’t panic, though. It is looking like St. Brown will be good to play against Minnesota.
Amon-Ra St. Brown officially questionable, as is… basically the whole roster. St. Brown seems to be in a good position to play. https://t.co/x5ZbPAkR8C

St. Brown was one of many Lions players listed as questionable, and there hasn’t been an indication that he’ll miss the game. It’s something to watch until the Lions announce their inactives, but it sounds like St. Brown will be good to go.
