The Detroit Lions will be missing key players on both sides of the ball for this Sunday’s game in Washington. On Friday, the team declared six players out, including five starters.
On offense, starting quarterback Matthew Stafford and starting center Frank Ragnow are out after missing all week of practice. Jeff Driskel will make his third consecutive start at quarterback for the Lions, while guard Graham Glasgow will likely slide over to center, allowing veteran Kenny Wiggins to fill the spot at right guard.
Head coach Matt Patricia thinks the guard rotation they have used all season could help ease the transition of a new offensive line lineup.
