Lions inactive players vs. Vikings: Carlton Davis active, Kevin Zeitler sits

[DSF]

The Detroit inactive player list for the Week 7 matchup in Minnesota with the Vikings cleared up the officially questionable status of two Lions starters from the final injury report on Friday.

Cornerback Carlton Davis was questionable for the game after dealing with a quad injury throughout the week. Davis is active in Minnesota.

Right guard Kevin Zeitler was not so fortunate. Zeitler is out with his groin injury that “popped up” during practice this week, in Dan Campbell’s words.

Tight end Parker Hesse is the most notable of the healthy scratches. The Lions perhaps tipped off a move like this by elevating TE Shane Zylstra for the game.

The rest of the Lions inactives are pretty standard fare at this point of the season, with depth offensive players sitting out as healthy scratches. Newcomer Isaiah Thomas was an expected scratch. The full list of inactives:

TE Parker Hesse

RG Kevin Zeitler

WR Isaiah Williams

OL Giovanni Manu

S Loren Strickland

EDGE Isaiah Thomas
