The Detroit Lions head into their Week 18 matchup against the Chicago Bears with renewed uncertainty surrounding one of their most important offensive weapons. Wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown appeared on the team’s latest injury report, raising concern just days before Detroit takes the field at Soldier Field in Chicago.
St. Brown was listed as a limited participant in practice due to a knee issue, a development that immediately drew attention given his central role in the Lions’ offense. While the team did not assign him a game designation on the final injury report, his status will remain closely monitored leading up to kickoff, leaving fans and analysts watching for last-minute updates.
Despite St. Brown’s appearance on the injury report, Detroit’s receiving corps is otherwise healthy. No other wide receivers were listed with injuries, providing some reassurance for the Lions as they prepare for a divisional clash that still carries significance for momentum and evaluation heading into the offseason.
If St. Brown is able to suit up, he will do so following another dominant campaign. The All-Pro wideout leads the Lions in every major receiving category, compiling 1,262 yards and 11 touchdowns on 106 receptions from 157 targets. His consistency and production have made him the focal point of Detroit’s passing attack throughout the 2025 season.
The Lions are set to face the Bears on Sunday afternoon in Chicago, with kickoff scheduled for 4:25 p.m. ET. The game will be played at Soldier Field and broadcast nationally on FOX, placing added spotlight on St. Brown’s availability and performance.
As Detroit closes out its season, all eyes will be on the injury updates surrounding its star receiver. Whether St. Brown takes the field or not, his status underscores how quickly late-season injury concerns can alter the narrative heading into a high-profile divisional matchup.
