If the Detroit Lions want to bounce back from a tough loss in Week 1, they will have to do so shorthanded.
When the Lions square off against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday afternoon at Lambeau Field, they will do so without at least 4 starters.

On Friday, the Lions released their final Week 2 Injury Report and staters Joe Dahl, Kenny Golladay, and Desmond Trufant were among the four players listed as OUT for Sunday’s game.
Then, on Friday, the Lions announced that starting DT Nick Williams was being down to OUT for Sunday’s game.
We are still awaiting the Lions decision on starting RT Halapoulivaati Vaitai, who has not practiced in over two weeks. If Vaitai is not able to give it a go, that would make 5 starters the Lions would be without, including 2 starting offensive linemen.
