Safety Brian Branch is active after being listed as questionable with a calf issue. Glasgow is dealing with a knee injury that limited him to one limited practice this week. He will eye a Week 17 return. Despite an sustaining unfathomable amount of injuries this year, the Lions remain heavy favorites over the lowly Bears.

Glasgow missed the first two practices of the week with the knee issue but was upgraded to a limited session on Friday, giving him a shot to suit up on Sunday. Kayode Awosika has one start at left guard this year and another at right guard. He would likely enter the lineup if Glasgow can’t go.

Dan Campbell called some of the Lions’ Wednesday absences precautionary, so Glasgow could return to practice at any point this week. While the Detroit defense has sustained more injuries than any other unit, the offense, sans David Montgomery, should have all of the big names available for Week 16.

Glasgow has played in all 34 regular season games for the Lions over the last two years, and has started in 28 of those games. A third-round pick of the Lions back in 2016, Glasgow has started 106 games in his career and has experience at both guard positions and at center. With guard Jonah Jackson potentially leaving via free agency, locking in Glasgow through 2026 makes a lot of sense for both sides.
