Detroit Lions Week 10 inactives: Za’Darius Smith won’t play vs Texans

The Detroit Lions have declared their inactives ahead of their Week 10 game against the Houston Texans.

The Detroit Lions have declared their inactives ahead of the Week 10 matchup with the Houston Texans. Detroit made a plethora of other moves this week, all of which we covered in our latest Lions’ depth chart update, but the most notable was trading for edge rusher Za’Darius Smith—who, unfortunately, won’t play in this game.

After acquiring Smith on Tuesday, the Lions elected to give Smith a couple of days off (he was prepared to go on his bye week in Cleveland), and saw him join the team on Friday for his first practice with the Lions.

Reports leaked out early Sunday morning that Smith was “not quite ready” to go this week, which has now been confirmed. So while he’ll sit this game out, he will enter Week 11 with a full week of practice that should get him fully acclimated for a home game against the Jaguars.

For this week’s game, because the Lions have eight offensive linemen active for Sunday’s game, they are eligible to expand their game-day roster from 47 to 48 players. Therefore, with 55 players on the game-day roster and 48 eligible to play, the Lions need to declare just seven players inactive for today’s matchup.

Lions inactives:

  • EDGE Za’Darius Smith
  • LT Taylor Decker — shoulder, ruled OUT
  • LB Malcolm Rodriguez — ankle, ruled OUT
  • OG Christian Mahogany
  • RT Colby Sorsdal
  • LT Giovanni Manu
  • S Loren Strickland

Texans inactives:

  • RB Dameon Pierce (groin) — ruled out
  • EDGE Will Anderson Jr. (ankle) — ruled out
  • WR Nico Collins
  • LB Jamal Hill
  • OT Zachary Tomas
  • CB Myles Bryant
