Durham was in for 78 of Detroit’s 84 offensive plays, while Thomas saw just 17 snaps throughout the game.
Fantasy Impact: It looks like we can forget about Thomas emerging as a potential fantasy play. The Lions just signed Durham off the practice squad on Tuesday, so it’s rather concerning he saw so much more playing time than Thomas in Week 14.
Neither wideout looks like much of an option for your lineup at this point.
