Lions' Jared Goff Lands on the Injury Report With a Chest Issue Before Germany

By , LionsCountry ·

Lions fans, take a breath. Jared Goff showed up on the injury report with a chest issue to open Week 10, but nothing so far points to him missing the trip to Germany.

Our Take: Goff is about as durable as quarterbacks come, and limited on a walkthrough day is not panic territory. Still, Thursday's and Friday's reports matter, because Detroit needs its quarterback sharp against New England.

Goff was listed as limited on Wednesday's estimated report after the Lions held a closed walkthrough, MLive's Jacob Richman reported. It is his first appearance on the practice report this season, and he has not missed a game since Week 17 of 2021, per MLive. NBC Sports noted there has been no indication Goff is at risk of missing Sunday's game against the Patriots.

Safeties Brian Branch (hip) and Kerby Joseph (knee) and receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (rib) were also limited, according to the team's report. St. Brown played through a rib injury last week and led the team with eight catches for 86 yards against Miami. Dan Campbell said on 97.1 The Ticket he does not see Joseph playing in Germany, per MLive. Center Cade Mays (ankle) and cornerback D.J. Reed (hip) did not practice, and Campbell gave them a "way, way outside shot." Edge DJ Wonnum (concussion) and running back Jacob Saylors were full participants.

What to watch: Goff's status the next two days. On the other side, Drake Maye was a full participant for New England.
