No Delmas on opening drive
Interesting change here on defense to start for the Lions. Louis Delmas is on the sideline but has no helmet and doesn't look like he's planning on coming into the game any time soon. Marquand Manuel is taking his place at safety alongside Ko Simpson. Don't know if it's simply a coaches' decision or has something to do with the knee injury he suffered last week at Seattle.
