Fantasy Impact: Kennedy underwent testing that revealed the extent of the damage.

The Lions' D/ST logged five sacks and an interception while allowing 21 points in Sunday's win over the Arizona Cardinals.

Fantasy Impact: Detroit's defense did well on Sunday, holding Arizona's offense to 21 points and logging multiple big plays to help out their own offense. This unit has shown a lot of weakness through the first five weeks of the season, however, so they shouldn't be started in most leagues for the foreseeable future.

Jake Bates went 6-for-6 on his extra-point attempts and made his lone field-goal attempt in Sunday's 45-21 win over the Arizona Cardinals.

Fantasy Impact: The veteran kicker had a good game on Sunday, knocking in all seven of his kicks in the team's blowout win over Arizona. He should continue to be a good fantasy option at the kicker position for the foreseeable future.

Sam LaPorta caught five passes for 88 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 45-21 win over the Arizona Cardinals.

Fantasy Impact: LaPorta looked great again on Sunday, finishing as Detroit's leading receiver with 88 yards and a touchdown on five catches against the Cardinals. He has been playing very well and remains a must-start fantasy option for the time being.

Isaac TeSlaa failed to catch either of his two targets in Sunday's 45-21 win over the Arizona Cardinals.

Fantasy Impact: TeSlaa had close to 100 yards last week, but he did not follow that up with a good performance in Week 5. He wasn't able to catch a single pass on Sunday, despite the fact that Detroit's offense was unstoppable in this win over the Cardinals. He is hard to trust from a fantasy perspective moving forward, as he is likely considered the fifth option on this offense at best.

Jameson Williams caught 2-of-4 targets for 47 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 45-21 win over the Arizona Cardinals.

Fantasy Impact: Williams only caught two passes on Sunday, but he was able to get into the end zone on both of them, which left him with a great fantasy total in this win over the Cardinals. He is expected to continue to be a boom-or-bust fantasy option on a week-to-week basis moving forward.

Amon-Ra St. Brown caught 6-of-11 targets for 69 yards in Sunday's 45-21 win over the Arizona Cardinals.

Fantasy Impact: The star wideout had an okay game on Sunday. He racked up 69 yards in an easy win over the Cardinals, but he wasn't able to get into the end zone at all, which left him with a mediocre fantasy total to his standards. He has had a great start to the season overall and should continue to be a high-end fantasy option moving forward.

Jahmyr Gibbs rushed the ball 25 times for 151 yards and two touchdowns and caught five passes for 56 yards in Sunday's 45-21 win over the Arizona Cardinals.

Fantasy Impact: Gibbs had yet another dominant game on Sunday. He logged over 200 total yards and two touchdowns in an easy win over the Cardinals as he continues the historic pace that he has been producing at through the first five weeks of the season. There's no reason to think he will slow down anytime soon, so fantasy managers should continue to value him as a top-tier fantasy asset for as long as he remains healthy and on the field.

Jared Goff completed 19-of-30 passing attempts for 271 yards and three touchdowns and added another in Sunday's 45-21 win over the Arizona Cardinals.

Fantasy Impact: Goff was able to lead the Lions to an easy win over the Cardinals on Sunday. He was very efficient over the course of the afternoon, racking up nearly 300 total yards and four touchdowns, which left him with a fantastic fantasy total. He projects to be a quality fantasy option again in a home matchup against the Packers next week.

Lions coach Dan Campbell said LB Devin White is "probably going to need surgery” after fracturing his forearm in Sunday's game against the Cardinals. (Source: Detroit Lions on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: White will miss some time. He could be placed on injured reserve.

Cade Mays is expected to return in Week 7 against the Packers. (Source: Ben Raven on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: Mays returned to practice this week. It was unlikely he would return immediately. He'll likely return after the bye week.

Fantasy Impact: Branch returned to practice this week. It was unlikely he would return immediately. He'll likely return after the bye week.

The Lions signed Miles Kitselman to their practice squad.

Fantasy Impact: Kitselman will add depth on the practice squad for Detroit.

Fantasy Impact: Mahogany will take the field after being sidelined in Week 2 for head coach Dan Campbell, joining rookie Blake Miller (knee) in returning to a Detroit offensive line that will look to keep quarterback Jared Goff clean against the Jets Sunday.

Fantasy Impact: Miller is good to go after progressing throughout the practice week, boosting a Detroit offensive line that will look to keep quarterback Jared Goff upright against the Jets defense Sunday.

The Lions signed DB Jalen Mills to their practice squad.

Fantasy Impact: Mills will add depth in the secondary for Detroit.

The Lions signed S Bishop Fitzgerald off the Steelers’ practice squad.

Fantasy Impact: Fitzgerald will add depth in the secondary for Detroit.

Avonte Maddox (foot) will require season-ending foot surgery to repair the injury he sustained against the Bills on Thursday. (Source: Adam Schefter on X)

Fantasy Impact: It’s a tough break for Maddox and the Detroit defense, who lose yet another veteran in what is already a struggling defense. They’ll have to bring in some new names and hope for the best in their defensive backfield.

Sione Vaki rushed the ball one time for seven yards and caught one pass for 13 yards in Thursday's 41-31 loss to the Buffalo Bills.

Fantasy Impact: Vaki continues to make minimal impact on Detroit's offense. He has squarely established himself as the RB2 behind Jahmyr Gibbs, but that role hasn't furnished him with many opportunities over the first two weeks of the season. He remains nothing more than a mid-tier handcuff option for the foreseeable future.

D.J. Reed Jr. (foot) is active for the Lions game against the Bills on Thursday. (Source: Detroit Lions on X)

Fantasy Impact: Reed was initially questionable to play with a foot injury, but was not among the inactives list. The veteran will try to bolster a struggling secondary against a passing attack that took down Houston on Sunday.
