ALLEN PARK, Mich. (AP) — Detroit Lions linebacker Alex Anzalone participated in a walkthrough practice on Wednesday as he makes his way back from a broken forearm.
“He’ll be out there running around,” Lions coach Dan Campbell said. “We’ll see how he does. (Thursday) will be a big day for us to see where he’s at.”
Anzalone has been out since breaking his left forearm on Nov. 17 in a win over Jacksonville. He has 56 tackles this season, ranking fourth on the team after leading the franchise in tackles in each of the previous two years.
The Lions (14-2) and Minnesota Vikings (14-2) will meet Sunday night in the Motor City. The winner will earn the NFC North title, home-field advantage through the conference playoffs and a bye. The loser will start the playoffs next week on the road as the NFC’s No. 5 seed.
