Lions will have starting CB in lineup vs. Vikings; see inactives here
Cornerback Roger McCreary is active for the Lions against the Vikings despite dealing with a recent foot injury.
DETROIT — Cornerback Roger McCreary will be in the Detroit Lions' starting lineup this Sunday, Nov. 1, when they face the Minnesota Vikings at Ford Field. McCreary, who was listed as questionable due to a foot injury, is now officially active for the game. The Lions have five players who are inactives and healthy scratches. McCreary has been instrumental in the Lions' secondary, helping them recover from a rough start to the season.
In their last two games, the Lions have allowed 38 combined points, compared to an average of 32 points in their first four matchups. McCreary had a standout performance last week, playing 67 defensive snaps against the Green Bay Packers, allowing two catches for 30 yards on five targets. While the Minnesota Vikings have struggled this season, ranking near the bottom in total offense, passing, and scoring, they still possess an elite receiving corps that will be a challenge for the Lions to contend with.
