Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) is practicing Saturday, Kyle Meinke of MLive.com reports.

Great news for owners who picked up St. Brown this weekend. St. Brown injured his ankle during a mid-August practice but never seemed to be in serious danger of missing the upcoming Thursday night opener against Kansas City, according to the story. The story went on to say it's unclear if he'll even be listed Monday when the Lions and Chiefs release the first official injury reports of the 2023 season. St. Brown looks good to go for Week 1 at this point.

On Tuesday, head coach Dan Campbell gave a positive update on Amon-Ra St. Brown’s condition.

“He’s doing good, he’s doing good. We weren’t going to play him in Carolina, but he’s doing great,” Campbell said, via the team.

St. Brown won’t be playing this week, and it doesn’t sound like there’s much concern about his ankle. The team added they never planned to have the wideout in the lineup against the Panthers. St. Brown got hurt in practice last week and did not play against the Jaguars last Saturday. We rank him 10th among our WRs heading into drafts.

Head coach Dan Campbell added that WR Amon-Ra St. Brown will likely be back on the field between Monday-Friday of next week after a small ankle injury suffered yesterday.

It doesn't seem to be anything to be concerned about, but we'll keep an eye on it. The wide receiver depth chart looks iffy, with Jameson Williams suspended until October and now nursing a hamstring injury that will keep him out of the rest of the preseason. Rookie tight end Sam LaPorta may be a bigger part of this offense than most were expecting.

Lions’ WR Jameson Williams has a hamstring injury that is likely to sideline him for the remainder of the preseason.

Another setback for what has been nothing short of a dramatic beginning to a career. The next time we see Williams on the field will be in mid-October, following his gambling suspension. This opens the door for other Lions options to pick up the slack alongside St. Brown, as the sophomore wide receiver has to be thought of as an easy fade at his 11th-round ADP.

After missing camp and the first 11 games of his rookie season, while recovering from an ACL tear in his left knee, the second-year Detroit Lions receiver Jameson Williams will also sit the first six regular season games of 2023 due to suspension for violating the NFL’s gambling policy.
Lions coach Dan Campbell says they’ll “douse him with a ton of game reps” during the upcoming preseason contests against the New York Giants, Jacksonville Jaguars, and Carolina Panthers.

The article goes on; "Williams returned from a leg injury to participate in his first padded practice of the summer on Monday, struggling at times with drops and during 1-on-1s in the red zone."

With only 37 routes run through six truncated games to begin his career, it's obvious that this is not what Detriot had in mind when selecting him with the 12th-overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft. If everything goes to plan during his time away from the team, Williams *should* be able to operate as the team's WR2 by the end of 2023, which will push down the veterans playing opposite St. Brown. Amon-Ra remains a very interesting selection in this year's fantasy drafts, but we'll have to slightly temper expectations in the back-half of the season with the return of Williams and the addition of receiving-game specialist rookie Jahmyr Gibbs.

Jameson Williams will return to practice today for the first time since his ACL injury.

Williams still has some time until he hits a football field in a game, but it could come in December. For fantasy teams already prepared to make a playoff run, it would behoove those managers to consider throwing the rookie on to benches if he is available on your waiver wire. Kalif Raymond, who is essentially operating as the WR2, would revert back into a slot role immediately upon Williams' arrival.

Lions’ RB D’Andre Swift is off this week’s injury report and is expected to play Sunday vs. Miami, WR Amon-Ra St. Brown is listed as questionable.

Both Swift and St. Brown should be in fantasy lineups if they're good to go Sunday, in a great bounce back spot against a leaky Dolphins defense.

Lions coach Dan Campbell says WR Amon-Ra St. Brown is "moving right along."

The tweet went on to say St. Brown is good and he'll be out there running around today, according to Campbell. He just returned from an ankle injury but was ruled out last week against the Cowboys after suffering a concussion. The hope is he's on track to play in Week 8.

Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Cowboys with a concussion.

St. Brown had just come back from other injuries and getting the bye week to rest, but unfortunately, it is an early exit for the star Lions wide receiver. Josh Reynolds is back as the top receiver for Jared Goff with DJ Chark also not playing today.

Josh Reynolds was back at practice Friday, putting him on course to operate as the Lions' number two wide receiver behind Amon-Ra St. Brown. Reynolds had missed Wednesday and Thursday's practice due to a knee issue.

Reynolds can be considered a Flex play with the potential for borderline WR2 numbers. He has yet to hit the 100-yard mark on the season, but has two games of 90+ yards and two other games with a touchdown.
