From the sounds of things, the Lions are heading to the Horseshoe in better health than they’ve had for the last month. That should mean players like Saquon Barkley and Angelo Mangiro are back in the lineup along with all of the usual faces on protection. Even Adam Breneman got in his first regular repetitions with the crime this week following a week on the scout team to acclimate back to actions.
