Limited to open week
Decker (shoulder) was a limited participant at practice Monday.
ANALYSIS
Decker was once again included on the injury report to open the week due to his ongoing shoulder issue. The offensive lineman hasn't missed a game this season and doesn't seem likely to do so Thursday against the Cowboys. Decker will have two more chances to log a full practice before facing Dallas in Week 14.

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.
