UPDATE: Adam Schefter is reporting that Stefon Diggs is likely out for tomorrow's game.
Even though he is listed as questionable for Thur vs. Detroit, Vikings WR Stefon Diggs is unlikely to play due to knee injury, per sources.

Since we're on a short week, we only get about twenty-four hours notice with the final injury reports for this Thursday afternoon's game between the Detroit Lions and the Minnesota Vikings at Ford Field. So, without any further ado, let's take a look at both teams, starting with the visitors.
Minnesota Vikings
Player | Position | Injury | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday Status |
Sharrif Floyd | DT | Knee | DNP | DNP | DNP | Out |
Marcus Sherels | CB/PR | Rib/Ankle | DNP | DNP | DNP | Out |
Terence Newman | CB | Neck | DNP | DNP | DNP | Doubtful |
Stefon Diggs | WR | Knee | LP | DNP | DNP | Questionable |
Eric Kendricks | LB | Hip | LP | LP | LP | Questionable |
Captain Munnerlyn | CB | Ankle | LP | LP | LP | Questionable |
Harrison Smith | S | Ankle | DNP | DNP | LP | Questionable |
Mackensie Alexander | CB | Shoulder | FP | FP | FP | -- |
Tom Johnson | DT | Illness | DNP | LP | FP | -- |
Andrew Sendejo | S | Illness | -- | DNP | FP | -- |
Sherels apparently suffered a rib injury on the fourth quarter on Sunday, and Newman's injury occurred during the game as well, which explains why he only got 22 snaps in the win over Arizona. Of the four players listed as "questionable," Diggs is apparently the most iffy to play. It sounds like folks are leaning towards him being out, but he'll probably be a game-time decision.
And now, on to the home team.
Detroit Lions
Player | Position | Injury | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday Status |
Ezekiel Ansah | DE | Ankle | LP | LP | LP | Questionable |
Don Carey | S | Hamstring | LP | LP | LP | Questionable |
Graham Glasgow | OL | Ankle | LP | LP | LP | Questionable |
DeAndre Levy | LB | Knee | LP | LP | LP | Questionable |
Theo Riddick | RB | Ankle | LP | LP | LP | Questionable |
Khyri Thornton | DT | Foot | LP | LP | LP | Questionable |
Well, this is not what we'd call a terribly helpful injury report. There have been reports throughout the week that Levy wasn't going to be playing in this one, so we'll have to see how that shakes out. Ansah has been dinged up all season, but I'd expect that he'd play. Same goes for Riddick.
That's a look at the injury reports before tomorrow's game, ladies and gentlemen. We'll have more for you as we get closer to kickoff.
