Lions' 2025 Week 11 Depth Chart

The Detroit Lions will be shorthanded in what is a massive showdown against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Detroit has eight players ruled out and seven players questionable for Sunday's game, meaning that they will once again be forced to rely on the depth they have at their disposal in a game that will carry big playoff implications.

Here is a breakdown of the Lions' depth chart heading into their Week 11 matchup with the Eagles.

Quarterbacks

Starter: Jared Goff
Backup: Kyle Allen

Goff's durability streak continues, as he will once again be the guy for Detroit. He hasn't missed a game since 2021, and is looking to help the Lions earn a win in what is traditionally one of the toughest environments to play in.

Running backs

Starter: Jahmyr Gibbs
Backup: David Montgomery
Reserves: Sione Vaki (Questionable, ankle), Craig Reynolds (Questionable, hamstring), Jacob Saylors (Questionable, back)

Gibbs and Montgomery have been getting closer to a 50-50 split in recent weeks, with both players coming off of good showings against the Commanders. The injuries to their depth players could have an impact on special teams, as the healthiest option may be tabbed to return kickoffs.

Wide receivers

Starters: Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams, Kalif Raymond
Backups: Isaac TeSlaa (Questionable, oblique), Dominic Lovett, Jackson Meeks (Practice squad elevation), Tom Kennedy (Practice squad elevation)

TeSlaa was a late addition to the injury report, as he was downgraded to questionable Saturday with a new oblique injury. Detroit elevated two receivers from the practice squad for this week's game, which could be an indication that they don't feel great about TeSlaa's chances to play. Meeks could also be an option at tight end, as Dan Campbell noted that he has been trying the young player at the position recently.

Tight end

Starter: Brock Wright (Questionable, ankle)
Backup: Ross Dwelly
Out/Injured: Sam LaPorta (Injured reserve), Shane Zylstra (Injured reserve)

LaPorta going to injured reserve is a massive hit for the Lions' offense, as he was one of Goff's most reliable and consistent targets. However, the team has plenty of confidence in Wright to help the offense continue its role from last week. Detroit has utilized Wright plenty in two tight end sets, so it will be interesting to see how often the team calls on Dwelly in this role.

Offensive line

Starters: Taylor Decker (LT, Questionable, shoulder), Kayode Awosika (LG), Graham Glasgow (C), Tate Ratledge (RG), Penei Sewell (RT, Questionable, ankle)
Backups: Dan Skipper (OT, Questionable, back), Trystan Colon (C/G), Michael Niese (C/G)
Out/Injured: OG Christian Mahogany (Injured reserve), OT Giovanni Manu (Injured reserve), OG Miles Frazier (PUP), OT Jamarco Jones (Injured reserve), OG/OT Colby Sorsdal (Injured reserve)

The Lions have been banged up on the offensive line, but there appears to be little concern about the team being without a starter in Sunday's game. Niese was signed to the active roster Saturday, indicating that the team feels confident in his ability to step up if called upon.
