Detroit, MI (SportsNetwork.com) – Detroit Lions wide receiver Calvin Johnson is inactive for Sunday’s game against New Orleans because of a high ankle sprain.

Johnson also missed last Sunday’s contest against Minnesota because of the injury that severely limited his performance in games against Buffalo and the New York Jets the previous two weeks. He missed practice all week and was listed as questionable on the injury report.

The Lions will play next Sunday in London against Atlanta before their bye in Week 9.

Tight ends Eric Ebron (hamstring) and Joseph Fauria (ankle) are also inactive for Sunday’s game, as is running back Theo Riddick (hamstring).
