All Lions on the active roster are healthy coming out of the bye week

The Detroit Lions are coming out of the bye in Week 5 in very good condition. In fact, all of the players on the active 53-man roster are healthy enough to practice ahead of the Lions’ Week 6 matchup with the Dallas Cowboys.

Detroit technically did not practice on Wednesday thanks to the bye week and coming off Monday Night Football in Week 4, so the practice participation report released by the team is only an estimate. But every single Lions player, including C Frank Ragnow and S Brian Branch, were estimated to be full participants if the team did hold a practice.

Branch and Ragnow each missed the win over Seattle. They are the only players on the active roster who earned any injury designation on the update. Rookie OL Christian Mahogany was also designated as a full participant as he continues to progress toward activation from the non-football illness list. Mahogany began his 21-day window to be activated during Tuesday’s practice.
