What happened: Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown is active and cleared to play Sunday against the Miami Dolphins, per Tom Pelissero. St. Brown entered Sunday listed as questionable after dealing with a rib issue throughout the week.

Why it matters: Detroit enters Sunday following a 19-15 decision over the Minnesota Vikings on Nov. 1. The Lions previously managed practice workloads for St. Brown in late October, making his availability pivotal against a Miami defense looking to rebound from a 24-19 defeat against New England.

By the numbers: Last season (2025), St. Brown recorded 117 receptions for 1,401 yards and 11 touchdowns in 17 games with the Lions.

What to watch: Kickoff between the Lions and Dolphins is scheduled for Sunday at 1:00 PM ET.
