It seems like the Lions are trending in the direction of having all five expected offensive line starters available for the first time this season. RG T.J. Lang (concussion) went through a full practice Wednesday and LT Taylor Decker returned last week.

Lions HC Jim Caldwell said they are kind of going "week to week and see what happens, day to day" with Ezekiel Ansah and see what happens. Otherwise referred to the injury report, which has listed Ansah with a back injury. He has missed the last four Detroit practices and has now dealt with knee and back injuries all season.

T.J. Lang practiced in full again Thursday for the Lions. That's a good sign for him for Sunday against the Bears. DE Ezekiel Ansah continues to miss practice.

FPI: LIONS WITH SIGNIFICANT EDGE IN CHICAGO
For the fifth time this season, the Bears have less than a 40 percent chance to win at home, by FPI's measure. They've gone 2-2 with a point differential of plus-11 in those games. The Lions' odds to win are their highest in a road game since Week 16 of 2014.

Darren Fells ?couldn?t be happier? with decision to join Lions.
One of the most underrated moves the Lions made this offseason was to add tight end Darren Fells to their roster. Fells knows he made the right decision.
