Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell had some positive injury news on a very important Lions player on Tuesday. In his weekly guest appearance on the team’s flagship radio station, Campbell deemed it a good chance that Amon-Ra St. Brown will return for the Week 6 matchup in Tampa against the Buccaneers.
St. Brown missed the Week 5 win over the Carolina Panthers with an abdominal injury. He had previously been dealing with a toe issue as well.

The Lions didn’t need him against winless Carolina. St. Brown’s presence is far more important against the 3-1 Buccaneers, who are coming off a bye week.
Detroit is off on Tuesday, with the first practice injury report coming after Wednesday’s practice. The final injury designations will come out Friday afternoon.
