Sept 21, 2017In the past, NFL teams have been fined for shoddy injury reports.
Detroit coach Jim Caldwell is on the hot seat for his lack of injury reporting, so it was no surprise that Thursday's injury report didn't have any changes.
Detroit defensive end Ezekiel Ansah (knee) and guard Joe Dahl (lower leg) were limited in practice on Wednesday and Thursday, according to the team’s official injury report.
Linebacker Jarrad Davis (concussion), center Travis Swanson (ankle), running back Dwayne Washington (quadricep) and safety Tavon Wilson (shoulder) did not practice each day.
