- Despite appearing on the injury report with a foot issue, Lions' starting outside corner D.J. Reed is active, while two defensive backs, Ennis Rakestraw and Keith Abney, are inactive.
- The Lions adjusted their roster by signing Levi Onwuzurike and elevating two players, bringing their game-day roster to 55 players with 48 eligible to play, necessitating seven inactive declarations.
- The Buffalo Bills listed several inactives, including running back Ty Johnson and wide receiver Skyler Bell, with a notable surprise being defensive lineman Ed Oliver, who suffered a hip injury during warmups and will not play.
