Golden Tate (hip) is probable for Sunday's game against New England.

Tate (hip) is probable for Sunday's game against New England.

Analysis:

Tate wasn't listed on the injury report prior to Friday, when he showed up as a limited practice participant. It's not clear whether Tate tweaked the hip during practice Friday or if he has some irritation going into Friday and the Lions decided to rest him a bit. It is in any case a minor issue, as evidenced by his probable designation.
