Lions RB Kevin Smith (ankle) was limited in practice today, but came up lame and had to leave it early. He is officially listed as questionable for Sunday, but all indications are that Maurice Morris will start and Smith will not play.
Defensive end Lawrence Jackson will be out again while defensive backs Chris Houston and Louis Delmas are listed as doubtful. Nick Fairley, who was in a boot all week, is questionable with a foot injury.
