Lions' Jones inactive vs. Saints

The Detroit Lions won't have wideout Marvin Jones in the lineup for Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints.

Jones ran routes with the Lions' receivers in pregame warmups, but apparently his thigh injury won't allow him to be active.

With Jones sitting out, the Lions will lean on Golden Tate, Anquan Boldin, and Eric Ebron to carry their passing attack in a game that has the look of a shootout.
