Green Bay cornerback Charles Woodson was active for the Packers' game at Detroit despite injuring his ankle in practice Wednesday.

Woodson, the 2009 NFL Defensive Player of the Year, had been listed as probable for the game.

As expected, Detroit is without quarterbacks Matthew Stafford and Shaun Hill, forcing Drew Stanton to start for a second straight week. Stafford has an injured right shoulder, and Hill hurt a finger on his right hand.

Lions offensive tackle Gosder Cherilus is out with an injured knee, and Corey Hilliard started in his place.
