What a day it has been for Detroit Lions fans. They woke up bright and early with optimism in their hearts and then was immediately disappointed when NFL Network's Tom Peliserro dropped the news that both Taylor Decker and David Montgomery would not play Thursday night and that Emmanuel Moseley would make his debut.
This seemed very off and immediately confused everyone on the Lions beat. The reason for that is that we've spent the week listening to Dan Campbell tell us how he felt really good about Decker and Montgomery playing and we also watched both players tell us that they want to play. The other thing is we heard Campbell say he wasn't sure about Moseley multiple times this week.
As it would turn out, that report was wrong. David Montgomery and Taylor Decker will play against the Packers on Thursday night and Emmanuel Moseley's is being pushed off to another week.
I don't blame Peliserro. He has to cover 32 different teams and wires can get crossed sometimes. It happens to everybody.
Breathe easy Lions fans. They will return tonight.
