Jeff Okudah out for Detroit Lions' season finale vs. Green Bay Packers with elbow injury

GREEN BAY, Wis. — The Detroit Lions will be without starting cornerback Jeff Okudah for tonight's season finale against the Green Bay Packers.

Okudah is inactive two days after he suffered an elbow injury in practice. He was listed as questionable on the Lions' Friday injury report.

Mike Hughes, who has split reps with Okudah in recent weeks, is expected to start at outside cornerback opposite Jerry Jacobs for a game the Lions (8-8) might need to win to make the playoffs.

The Lions will earn the NFC's final wild card spot if they beat the Packers and the Seattle Seahawks lose to the Los Angeles Rams.
