Megatron tells teammates he's playing

For whatever it may be worth on a verrrrrry slow Sunday for fantasy news, Lions WR Calvin Johnson has reportedly told his team that he will play today despite the nagging ankle injury that cost him significant practice time this week. Of course, active/inactive is not the only question after last week's 2-catches-for-12-yards performance from the best wide receiver on the planet -- and reports are strangely silent as to how much the Lions will use Megatron or, you know, how good he'll be. Bottom line: Unless you play in an unusually shallow league, you probably have to gamble that even a gimpy Megatron will out-point the guys you could plug in for him. We wish you luck.
