The Detroit Lions (5-3) and Washington Commanders (3-6) have declared their inactives ahead of their Week 10 matchup.
The two biggest names that Lions fans were likely keeping their eye on were starting offensive tackles Penei Sewell and Taylor Decker—who were both dealing with shoulder injuries—but both have been cleared to play. Sewell’s injury is new, and while he took Wednesday off, he returned for practice on Thursday and Friday and was not listed with an injury designation. For Decker, this injury has lingered all season long, but after taking a couple of games off ahead of the bye, he’s been starting since.
