According to a report from ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, the Detroit Lions will likely be without their star running back D’Andre Swift as he is “not expected to play Sunday vs. Cowboys, barring surprise.”
Swift, who said he injured his ankle in Week 1 against the Eagles, was able to play through the injury for two weeks before it finally caught up with him in Week 3 against the Vikings. Swift would miss the next two games, and coming out of a Week 6 bye, was expected to return to action. While he did practice all week in limited fashion, Lions coaches have been cautious about saying he is ready to play.
