Lions S DeShon Elliott ruled out with a concussion

The Detroit Lions will play the second half of Sunday’s game in Chicago shorthanded on defense. Starting safety DeShon Elliott has been ruled out of the game with a concussion.

Elliott suffered the brain injury at the end of Bears QB Justin Fields’ touchdown run near the end of the first half. He tried to lay a lick on Fields at the goal line but instead got the worst of the collision.
