Is Amon-Ra St. Brown playing in Week 13? Latest injury update on Lions wide receiver image

The Detroit Lions have multiple injury concerns going into their Week 13 game versus the Chicago Bears, with wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown being among them.

St. Brown suffered a knee injury during the Week 12 game against the Indianapolis Colts, but we didn't know about it until the first injury report was released on Monday because the All-Pro wide receiver never exited the game.

St. Brown saw more work at practice as the week progressed, with the former USC star going from did not practice on Monday, to limited on Tuesday and then full on Wednesday.

The fact he was able to log a full session to close out the week suggests he'll play, but he also has a questionable tag, so his suiting up for the Bears game isn't a 100% guarantee.

Here's everything we know about St. Brown ahead of Thursday's game.

Amon-Ra St. Brown injury update

According to the team's final injury report, St. Brown's participation was upgraded on Wednesday to a full practice after he was limited the day before. That puts him on the better side of the questionable tag he ultimately drew.

Is Amon-Ra St. Brown playing in Week 13?

Earlier in the week, head coach Dan Campbell listed three players he had concern about in terms of their ability to play in Week 13, but St. Brown was not among them. Furthermore, Campbell said he felt good about St. Brown playing.

"Dan Campbell said he feels pretty good about Amon-Ra St. Brown playing Thursday," Tim Twentyman of the team's official website wrote.

When asked about his status for Thursday, St. Brown said he feels good and expects to play, so there's that, also.

When you consider his full practice on Wednesday, what both he and Campbell said and the fact that St. Brown is one of the toughest guys in the NFL, we'd be shocked if he wasn't on the field in Week 13.

But, just to be sure, keep an eye on the inactives that will be released an hour and a half before the 12:30 p.m. ET kickoff on Thursday.
