T.J. Hockenson - No practice Wednesday Hockenson (hand) won't practice Wednesday, Chris Burke of The Athletic reports.

Impact Hockenson couldn't suit up for Detroit's Week 14 loss to Denver, and though head coach Dan Campbell said he's "hopeful" the tight end will return for Week 15, Burke theorizes that Hockenson is trending in the wrong direction. In any case, Hockenson will almost certainly need to return to practice in at least a limited fashion by Friday to have a shot at suiting up in Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

Will Harris - Records nine tackles in loss Harris totaled nine tackles (seven solo) in the 38-10 loss to Denver on Sunday.

Impact Harris recorded a season-high in tackles Sunday as he faced off against a run-centered game plan by the Broncos. The safety has now tallied seven-plus tackles in three of his last four games along with a pass deflection in each of his last three games. Harris and the Lions travel back home to face a high-powered Arizona offensive attack.

Josh Woods - Monster tackling day Woods tallied 13 tackles (10 solo) in Sunday's 38-10 loss to the Broncos.

Impact Woods led the Lions in tackles Sunday as he posted his best game so far this season. As the Broncos handed off the ball to both Melvin Gordon and Javonte Williams a combined 39 times, the 25-year-old had a very busy afternoon. Do not expect the linebacker to put up these kinds of numbers week in and week out, but he has recorded eight-plus tackles in each of his last two games.

D'Andre Swift - Could be back Week 15 Coach Dan Campbell said Monday he's "hopeful" Swift (shoulder) will be available for Sunday's matchup against Arizona.

Impact Swift said that both Swift and T.J. Hockenson (hand) are "feeling better" Monday. The young running back and tight end are Detroit's most impactful skill-position players, so it would provide a notable boost for Jared Goff to get both back on the field against Arizona's dangerous defense. Meanwhile, Jamaal William (illness) remains on the COVID-19 list to begin Tuesday.

T.J. Hockenson - Optimism regarding Week 15 return Coach Dan Campbell said Monday he's "hopeful" Hockenson (hand) will be available for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

Impact Campbell said the same of D'Andre Swift (shoulder), so it looks like it's possible both of Detroit's top offensive weapons could be back on the field versus Arizona. In the event that Hockenson needs more time to rest, however, undrafted rookie Brock Wright and Shane Zylstra (also undrafted in 2020) will once again be called upon to hold down the fort at tight end.

Jerry Jacobs - Placed on injured reserve Jacobs (knee) was placed on IR on Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Impact Jacobs announced on Monday via his personal twitter account that he suffered an ACL injury in Sunday's loss to the Broncos. Neither the severity of the injury nor whether it will require surgery is known at this point, but based on the tone of Jacobs' tweet and the move to IR, it seems there may be at least a chance of an ACL tear.
