Lions' Marvin Jones: Inactive Sunday

Jones (thigh) is inactive for Sunday's game in New Orleans.

Analysis:

Belying his limited practice sessions throughout Week 13 prep, Jones will log his first absence as a Lion, which also marks his first DNP since missing the entire 2014 season. In his stead, Golden Tate and Anquan Boldin will act as the clear-cut top-2 wideouts, but residual targets should also fall in the hands of tight end Eric Ebron, running back Theo Riddick (ankle), and wide receiver Andre Roberts.
