Lions vs. Packers: Amon-Ra St. Brown ruled out in Thanksgiving matchup

The Detroit Lions will have to find a way to come back against their rival Green Bay Packers without one of their top offensive weapons, as wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown has been ruled out for the remainder of Detroit’s Thanksgiving Day game with an ankle injury.

On the second drive of the game, St. Brown was rolled from behind while blocking a running play. The star remained on the turf for a few minutes while he was evaluated by trainers. Finally, St. Brown got up and left the field and headed straight to the locker room. His return was initially considered doubtful, but was officially ruled out in the third quarter.

In 11 games this season, St. Brown has caught 75 passes for 884 yards and nine touchdowns. The Lions are already without tight end Sam LaPorta today, who was placed on injured reserve earlier this month because of a back injury, and wide receiver Kalif Raymond, who is inactive because of an ankle injury.

Dan Campbell will call on Jameson Williams, Tom Kennedy, as well as rookies Isaac TeSlaa and Dominic Lovett, to potentially step in in St. Brown’s absence.
