Detroit Lions inactives: WR Quintez Cephus and the case of the disappearing snaps

ATLANTA — Quintez Cephus led the Detroit Lions with 10 targets in their Week 1 loss to the Chicago Bears, but the rookie wide receiver is inactive Sunday for the second straight week.

Cephus, a fifth-round pick out of Wisconsin, played significant minutes in the Lions' first two games with Kenny Golladay out with a hamstring injury. Since Golladay's return, he's played just 16 snaps and been inactive for two games.

Golladay leads the Lions with 224 yards receiving on 14 catches, despite playing in just three games. Cephus, from Macon, Georgia, has six catches for 97 yards this season.
