Week 5 Lions-Packers inactives: Marvin Jones will play, Tavon Wilson will not

Based on Friday’s injury report, we already knew that Ezekiel Ansah (shoulder), Michael Roberts (knee) and T.J. Lang (concussion) were going to miss the Detroit Lions’ Week 5 contest with the Green Bay Packers. However, the Lions listed seven players as questionable in that report and only two of them are inactive: Tavon Wilson (back) and Eli Harold (not injury related).

Wilson being out shakes up the Lions’ secondary. They’ll need some help, specifically defending the run, which is likely why Detroit promoted Cre’Von LeBlanc from the practice squad this weekend.
