NFC Notes: Lions, Packers, Vikings

Lions

Lions HC Dan Campbell said he’s not sure when RB D’Andre Swift will return.

“I still think we’re taking this week-to-week, day-to-day,” Campbell said, via Lions Wire. “There again, I know as of this morning he’s better than he felt last week. He feels better than he was I guess Saturday when we worked with him. So, our plan is to work him back into practice this week and see how he feels.”

• Lions QB Jared Goff said he’s feeling OK despite testing positive for COVID: “I’m feeling good. It’s pretty much a mild cold. I’m feeling fine. I had some symptoms pop up really Sunday night after the game.”  (Eric Woodyard)
• Goff added he doesn’t know if he can play this week, but he will do his best to try: “Just take care of my body, rest, sleep, hydration, medicine.” (Woodyard)
