Marvin Jones injury update: Lions WR questionable vs. Bears, for fantasy owners [Update]
Marvin Jones is still plagued with a thigh issue as the fantasy playoffs begin.

The Detroit Lions are listing Marvin Jones as questionable vs. the Chicago Bears in Week 14.
Jones has been battling a thigh injury that had him limited in all three practices this week, so it looks like he is a game-time decision for Sunday. He missed the Lions’ Week 13 win over the New Orleans Saints. He was already putting up duds on a weekly basis with four straight games of less than 60 yards and no scores in five straight games.
Jones also has just 15 grabs in his last five games, making him not only unworthy of starting, but someone you should seriously consider dropping.
Fantasy Impact: If Jones is active, Yahoo! ranks him as the 52nd-best receiver in Week 14. He would face a Lions defense allowing the second-fewest fantasy points to receivers over the last five weeks.
Do not start Jones, and you should drop him as well.
