The Detroit Lions made a few roster moves on Saturday, updated their injury report, and elevated a practice squad player for their Week 5 game against the Carolina Panthers.
One of the most impactful moves made was downgrading rookie running back Jahmyr Gibbs on the injury report. Gibbs practiced in full earlier in the week, but showed up on the injury report on Friday as a limited participant due to a hamstring injury, and was given a questionable designation.
After a follow-up look from the Lions on Saturday, it was determined that Gibbs’ injury was worse than anticipated and they have downgraded him to DOUBTFUL for Sunday’s matchup.
