The NFL's best team is getting one of its star defensive players back, while the Detroit Lions will once again be without their midseason MVP.

The Lions ruled rookie running back Kerryon Johnson out for the second straight game Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams due to a knee injury he suffered in a Week 11 win over the Carolina Panthers.
