The burden on Matthew Stafford has been slightly eased for the Detroit Lions in their key Week 15 matchup. Tight end Eric Ebron will be active against the New York Giants, according to ESPN NFL Insider Adam Caplan.

Despite being limited in practice with a knee injury, Ebron will be available in the passing game for Stafford and the Lions offense. Dealing with this knee issue and struggling throughout the regular season, Ebron will look to reverse his fortunes against the Giants. With only one touchdown entering Week 15, Ebron must certainly look to add to that number if the Lions intend to come away with a victory.
Fantasy Outlook: Fantasy owners who have held onto tight end Eric Ebron are hoping that his struggles throughout this regular season will see a positive turn in Week 15. A great performance from Ebron will definitely help owners move on toward the fantasy championships. Owners should not hope for too much from Ebron, as his past performances have stated, and be very cautious to rely on him for a big game against the New York Giants.
