Jerry Jacobs - Active for Week 8 Jacobs (illness) is active for Sunday's matchup against the Eagles.
Impact Jacobs got sick during the week and missed Thursday's practice, but he was able to return in a limited fashion Friday. The rookie cornerback will suit up and draw the start opposite of Amani Oruwariye on Sunday.

Jamaal Williams inactive for Detroit Lions; D'Andre Swift should see bigger role Jamaal Williams, who leads the Detroit Lions with 312 yards rushing on 71 carries, missed practice time this week with a thigh injury.
OCTOBER 31, 2021 • FREEP.COM
AJ Parker - Ruled out for Week 8 Parker (shoulder) is inactive for Sunday's contest against the Eagles.
Impact Parker appears to have avoided a serious injury, as he was able to return to practice this week, but he still isn't game ready and will be sidelined Sunday. The rookie cornerback's absence will likely allow Bobby Price and Mark Gilbert to see increased snaps against Philly on Sunday.
OCTOBER 31, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Trey Flowers - Will play Sunday Flowers (knee) is active for Sunday's matchup with the Eagles.
Impact Flowers was limited in practices throughout the week, but he will be available Sunday. The 28-year-old linebacker only has 1.5 sacks this season, but he will look to add to that total against the Eagles' depleted offensive line.
OCTOBER 31, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Darren Fells - Not playing Sunday Fells (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's matchup with the Eagles.
Impact Fells has appeared in all seven games for the Lions this season, catching four passes for 43 yards. However, the 35-year-old will be sidelined Sunday, and Brock Wright will likely step into the backup tight end duties behind T.J. Hockenson.
OCTOBER 31, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Jermar Jefferson - Likely No. 2 back Sunday Jefferson is expected to serve as the top backup to D'Andre Swift in Sunday's game against the Eagles with No. 2 running back Jamaal Williams (thigh) inactive for the contest, Just...
Impact Beyond Swift and Williams, none of the Lions' other running backs have played an offensive snap this season, as Jefferson (nine) and Godwin Igwebuike (116) have seen all their reps on special teams to date. Jefferson shouldn't be expected to handle Williams' typical snap share -- which has ranged between 29 and 39 percent in all but one of the Lions' seven games -- but the seventh-round rookie out of Oregon State looks like he'll at least be the next man up when Swift requires a breather.
OCTOBER 31, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Geronimo Allison - Inactive for Week 8 Allison (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's matchup with the Eagles.
Impact Allison was active for the Lions last two contests, but he failed to record a catch on just two targets. KhaDarel Hodge will likely continue to operate as Detroit's No. 3 wideout behind Kalif Raymond and Amon-Ra St. Brown.
OCTOBER 31, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Jamaal Williams - Sitting Sunday Williams (thigh) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Eagles.
Impact Williams was a surprise addition to the Lions' Week 8 injury report due to a thigh issue, which limited him in practice both Thursday and Friday. While he entered the weekend as questionable, the Lions won't take any chances with Williams with a Week 9 bye on tap. Detroit thus will trust in D'Andre Swift (groin) to be the lead back, with just Godwin Igwebuike and Jermar Jefferson behind him on the depth chart.
OCTOBER 31, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
D'Andre Swift - Suiting up Week 8 Swift (groin) is listed as active Sunday against the Eagles.
Impact Swift has had limitations in practice due to a groin injury each week this season, but he's been able to suit up on game days. He could earn an even bigger workload than normal with Jamaal Williams (thigh) a surprise inactive Week 8. Through seven games, Swift has earned 17.1 touches per game, but with just Godwin Igwebuike and Jermar Jefferson to contend with for snaps, Swift could be in line for a career-best touch count (he's had 21 three different times in 20 appearances).
