Lions' Johnson's "Getting Closer" -- Tue Nov 3 9:00 pm --
 Status Still Unclear For Star WR; Stafford Still Recovering | The Matthew Stafford watch isn't quite over. Detroit HC Jim Schwartz said the rookie quarterback had no problems after returning from a right knee injury, but the Lions will continue to monitor him for setbacks.
"There's been nothing," Schwartz said. "But is he totally out of the woods? Is this behind him? Probably not yet. He probably still has treatments and things like that. I don't know for how long."

FF Today's Take: Stafford apparently come out of Week 8 no worse for wear, but Johnson's prolonged absence has to be frustrating his fantasy owners. The Lions have scored a total of 10 points in the two games he has missed, so it's a fair bet Schwartz is chomping at the bit to get him back in the lineup as well.
