DETROIT – Seven Detroit Lions players are listed as on the injury report against the Atlanta Falcons, with four starters out, another doubtful, and two questionable.

Here’s the full report:

  • Left tackle Taylor Decker is out with an ankle injury.
  • Cornerback Emmanuel Moseley is out with knee and hamstring injuries.
  • Safety Kerby Joseph is out with a hip injury.
  • Offensive guard Halapoulivaati Vaitai is out with a knee injury.
  • Running back David Montgomery is doubtful with a thigh injury.
  • Wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown is questionable with a toe injury.
