Detroit Lions Week 14 inactives: Austin Bryant OUT, Rashaan Melvin IN

The Detroit Lions will enter Week 14 a little healthier than in previous weeks. Of course, franchise quarterback Matthew Stafford remains out, but the extra time removed from the Thanksgiving game has afforded Detroit some time to recover.

That being said, rookie fourth-round pick Austin Bryant is OUT after suffering a hip injury during the week of practice. The defensive end is just a few weeks removed from being taken off injured reserve after suffering an upper-body injury during the first couple days of training camp. Since then, Bryant has just played in a single game—logging 16 defensive snaps in the absence of Trey Flowers against Washington.
