Playoff-Bound Lions Have Only 1 Voted To Pro Bowl
LARRY LAGE,AP Sports Writer
ALLEN PARK, Mich. (AP) — The Detroit Lions' only player voted to the Pro Bowl, Calvin Johnson, watched his teammates work out Wednesday. He might just be resting to be ready for the regular-season finale Sunday at Green Bay.
Quarterback Matthew Stafford is not a Pro Bowl selection despite having numbers comparable to New York's Eli Manning and playing for a team that definitely will be in the playoffs.
Starting cornerback Chris Houston and starting safety Louis Delmas did not practice Wednesday. Houston has a cast on his left hand and Delmas has been out since hurting his right knee on Thanksgiving against the Packers.
Backup cornerback Aaron Berry did work out after missing two games with an injured right shoulder.
