The Detroit Lions have declared their inactives ahead of their Week 3 matchup with the New York Jets. The Lions are surprisingly sitting a couple of veterans—like Devin White and Tyler Conklin—while the Jets will be without a couple of their top players, including WR AD Mitchell and SAF Minkah Fitzpatrick.
