The Detroit Lions appear to be preparing Shaun Hill to start Sundayโs game against the Denver Broncos as Chris McCosky reports that Hill was handling the first-team reps during Wednesdayโs practice.
So far the Lions have been keeping Matthew Staffordโs activity limited to stretching, jogging and some light throwing but at this point itโs hard to say that heโll be ready for game action this weekend. Getting Hill prepared for Sunday doesnโt rule Stafford out as it would be wise for them to have a contigency plan in place if Stafford does end up missing Week 8โs game. Youโll have to check back throughout the week for more details.
