Back at practice
Decker (shoulder) was a limited participant at practice Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Decker was able to return to practice after opening the week as a non-participant Wednesday due to the shoulder injury that he suffered in Week 9 against the Vikings. The offensive tackle isn't overly worried about the injury, saying Thursday that, "it'll be there, but I don't foresee an issue," in regards to his availability for Sunday's matchup with the Commanders, per Nolan Bianchi of The Detroit News.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Might not return this season
Decker, who is rehabbing from a finger injury, might not return to action this year, according to Josh Alper of Pro Football Talk.
ANALYSIS
The Lions designated Decker for return from injured reserve last week but did not activate him for their Week 6 game against the Bengals, and head coach Dan Campbell said there's a chance that they don't activate Decker at all. It seems the left tackle "kind of hit somebody" while wearing a protective covering on his injured finger at practice last week and the finger has responded poorly, which kept him from practicing last Friday and this Wednesday. At this point, it wouldn't be surprising if Decker does not return at all in 2021.
