Making progress in recovery
Decker (undisclosed) ramped up his activity during Monday's training camp practice, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Decker has been tending to an undisclosed injury since the start of training camp, but after passing a physical a little more than a week ago, it seems like he's nearing a return to full strength. Until he's back to 100 percent, Giovanni Manu may see some action with the starters at left tackle.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Might not return this season
Decker, who is rehabbing from a finger injury, might not return to action this year, according to Josh Alper of Pro Football Talk.
ANALYSIS
The Lions designated Decker for return from injured reserve last week but did not activate him for their Week 6 game against the Bengals, and head coach Dan Campbell said there's a chance that they don't activate Decker at all. It seems the left tackle "kind of hit somebody" while wearing a protective covering on his injured finger at practice last week and the finger has responded poorly, which kept him from practicing last Friday and this Wednesday. At this point, it wouldn't be surprising if Decker does not return at all in 2021.
