DETROIT (AP) Detroit Lions offensive lineman LaAdrian Waddle was carted off the field in the third quarter against Minnesota on Sunday with a left knee injury.

Waddle, in his second NFL season, has been a starter for the Lions, but he's been limited by injuries, including a calf issue early in the season.

Lions linebacker Ashlee Palmer left in the first half Sunday with a quadriceps injury.

Detroit defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh was active and played after missing practice time during the week with an illness.
