sight.
Stafford walked without a limp, but his right leg wasn't
deemed healthy enough for him to practice Wednesday, three days after he
was injured in a loss to Tennessee.
"I'm feeling better," he said. "Better today than I did on Sunday."
Stafford
wasn't sure if he would practice Thursday or whether he even needed a
practice before Detroit (1-2) hosts Minnesota on Sunday. He wouldn't say
what exactly was ailing him, but did acknowledging pulling "it" in
practice last week and his upper leg was wrapped as he walked off the
field against the Titans.
How hard is it to come back a hamstring injury?
"I'll let you know if I come back on Sunday," Stafford said.
The Lions won't update Stafford's status for the game until they have to in Friday's injury report.
If
Stafford can't play, Shaun Hill would start his 11th game for Detroit
and for the 27th time in an NFL career that started with the Vikings as a
seldom-used reserve in 2005. Hill started 16 games over three seasons
for San Francisco.
Hill took the first snap in 10 games two
years ago — when Stafford had his second straight injury-shortened
season — and threw 16 touchdown passes and 12 interceptions.
Minnesota coach Leslie Frazier said his team won't think it is getting a break if Hill plays in Stafford's place.
"We
have a lot of respect for Shaun Hill," Frazier said. "He's been a good
quarterback in our league. He played here for a little while and we know
he's very capable of leading the Lions to victory. Those guys seem like
they have a lot of confidence in him at the helm so we don't take
lightly him being the potential starter."
In relief of Stafford
at Tennessee, Hill capped an 80-yard drive that lasted less than a
minute with a 3-yard TD pass to Calvin Johnson with 18 seconds left and
heaved a 46-yard pass to Titus Young as time expired to send the game
into overtime.
The Lions are thrilled Hill chose to return to Detroit — where he's clearly a backup behind Stafford — for a third season.
"When
Shaun was a free agent this year, we made a very strong attempt to get
him back because we know what he can do," Lions coach Jim Schwartz said.
While Hill is solid, the Lions hope they're potentially
spectacular quarterback is good to go in a game they need to win to
avoid a 1-3 start that would make NFC North rival Minnesota 3-1.
Stafford has been relatively shaky this year with more interceptions (four) than TD passes,Free shipping BOTH ways on wedgeshoes,
but proved what he can do when healthy for the first time as a pro last
season. The No. 1 overall pick in the 2009 NFL draft bounced back last
year from two injury-riddled seasons by throwing for 5,000-plus yards,marcjacobsshoes,

Stafford also showed he could play through
pain last season with a sprained right ankle and a broken right index
finger that was supported by a splint and covered with a glove.
"It's something you learn to do when you get into this league, I'm no different than anyone else," Stafford said.

Lions S Louis Delmas, who had surgery Aug. 7 on his left knee, didn't
practice Wednesday and will likely miss his fourth straight game. ... TE
