Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown is listed as questionable for the team's game against the New England Patriots in Munich, Germany, with a rib injury that has bothered him since last week. St. Brown was a limited participant in the Lions' walk-through on Friday, Nov. 13, at FC Bayern Campus.
St. Brown said he is excited to play in the country where his mother was born, calling it "a dream come true" and saying he could not wait to see the fans. Pro Football Talk reported that his mother is German, that he speaks fluent German, and that the game holds personal significance for him, making it extremely unlikely he would miss it.S1S3
St. Brown played through the same injury last week, leading the Lions with eight catches for 86 yards in a 19-9 win at Miami. Running back Sione Vaki is also listed as questionable, though he was upgraded from non-participant to limited participant in practice.S1S3
The Lions have ruled out cornerback D.J. Reed, center Cade Mays and safety Kerby Joseph, none of whom travelled with the team to Germany. Joseph remains on the physically unable to perform list. Quarterback Jared Goff, safety Brian Branch, running back Jacob Saylors and pass rusher DJ Wonnum also carry injury concerns but practised in full the last two days and are expected to be ready for Sunday. The Lions are 6-2 on the season.S1S3
