The Detroit Lions will be without one of their key defenders against the San Diego Chargers, as outside linebacker DeAndre Levy is inactive with a hip injury. Tori Petry of DetroitLions.com has the full list of players who will not participate in today's action, including starting right tackle LaAdrian Waddle (knee).

DeAndre Levy & LaAdrian Waddle are inactive today. Also inactive: Warford, Reid, TJ Jones, Nevin Lawson, & Tim Wright. #Lions

Levy's status is not surprising. There wasn't much optimism about him playing this week, so Josh Bynes has prepared as the starter at weak-side linebacker.

On offense, Cornelius Lucas will start in place of the injured Waddle at right tackle.
