Bagshot, England (SportsNetwork.com) – Calvin Johnson’s status for Sunday’s
game in London remains up in the air as the star Detroit Lions wide receiver
continues to battle a high ankle sprain.
The Lions listed Johnson as questionable on Friday’s injury report and view
him as a game-time decision to play against Atlanta, according to the team’s
official website.
Johnson has missed the last two games because of the injury and was limited in
practice all week.
The Lions have ruled out tight ends Eric Ebron (hamstring) and Joseph Fauria
(ankle) and listed running back Reggie Bush (ankle) and tight end Brandon
Pettigrew (foot) as doubtful against the Falcons.
Bush sat out the last two practices and all three tight ends missed practice
every day this week.
Tackle LaAdrian Waddle (concussion) returned to practice on Friday but is
questionable to play. Defensive end Ziggy Ansah (toe) and running back Theo
Riddick (hamstring) are likely to play.
The 5-2 Lions will take on the 2-5 Falcons at Wembley Stadium in a game that’s
scheduled to begin at 9:30 a.m. ET.
