A normally potent Detroit Lions run game was stifled in a Week 9 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Despite boasting one of the league's best running back duos in Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery, the Lions were held to 65 yards on 20 rushing attempts in a 27-21 loss.

Detroit activated safety Daniel Thomas from injured reserve to take Robinson's spot. Thomas is now listed as questionable for Sunday's game as he returns to action from a broken forearm. The Lions did not activate LB Malcolm Rodriguez from injured reserve, so he will not play in Washington.

The Lions are billing the match as Wear White Thursday Night and directing fans to the Lions Supply retail shop at Ford Field and its online store.

The Detroit Lions will soon be getting on the plane to Washington to take on the Commanders, but first, they made some roster moves to get ready for this game. Here's what they did: This is a good get-back for the Lions.

Arthur Maulet gave up the game-clinching first down in last week's loss to the Vikings, but Kelvin Sheppard still has ultimate trust in him.

Gibbs has had a couple of duds this season, both in losses for the Lions in which their offense seemed off and their reliance on a good running game proved costly. Their matchup with the Washington Commanders in Week 10 presents the perfect opportunity to bounce back.

The Lions aim to avoid consecutive losses for the first time since 2022 when they travel to an injury-plagued Commanders team.

Terrion Arnold showed growth as a pass defender in his return from an injury for the Detroit Lions, but misplayed 3 of the Vikings' longest runs.
