This Sunday, the Detroit Lions are taking on the Atlanta Falcons over in London but the question remains will wide receiver Calvin Johnson play? Johnson made the trip to London with his teammates but did not practice today according to Tim Twentyman of DetroitLions.com.
No Calvin Johnson, Ansah, Waddle, Ebron, Pettigrew or Fauria at #Lions practice. Riddick was back.

Johnson has not played since Week Five against the Buffalo Bills in which he aggravated his sprain ankle. This season, Johnson only has 22 catches for 348 receiving yards and 2 touchdowns.
Megatron has made known that he will not play until he is healthy. In the last two games, that he played in against the New York Jets and Buffalo Bills, Johnson was not a factor. In fact, in those games, he only had three catches for 19 receiving yards.
It will be interesting to see if Megatron will attempt to practice for the rest of the week but if he cannot go expect Golden Tate to be the number one receiver again for Sunday’s game.
