Lions' Week 15 Thursday Injury Report

The Lions released their Thursday injury report.
In this story:

The Detroit Lions are in a short week preparing for their Week 15 matchup with the Denver Broncos. 

Despite injuries plaguing the team in recent weeks, the Lions appear to be quite healthy heading into the matchup. No player was ruled out Thursday, while four were designated as questionable. 

Head coach Dan Campbell is hoping to get his five starting linemen back in action together, after center Frank Ragnow missed last week's game against Chicago. 

Ragnow had suffered a knee injury against the New Orleans Saints in Week 13 that held him out last week. In addition, he has been dealing with lingering back and toe injuries throughout the year. 

He has been a participant in each of Detroit's practices this week, including Thursday's in a limited capacity. His status for Sunday's game is officially questionable. 

"I'm hoping, but I won't know until after today," Campbell said. "Look, Frank will be out there again, he's been working. We just need to make sure this thing is -- we're not getting a flare up or an irritation or something of that regard. So, he's doing okay, but I don't know that yet." 

As a whole, the Lions have had full participation in each of their two practices this week. The only non-participant was Taylor Decker, who appeared on Tuesday's estimated injury report for Detroit's walkthrough.
