ALLEN PARK, Mich. — The Detroit Lions' only player voted to the Pro Bowl, Calvin Johnson, watched his teammates work out Wednesday. He might just be resting to be ready for the regular-season finale Sunday at Green Bay.

Quarterback Matthew Stafford is not a Pro Bowl selection despite having numbers comparable to New York's Eli Manning and playing for a team that definitely will be in the playoffs.

Starting cornerback Chris Houston and starting safety Louis Delmas did not practice Wednesday. Houston has a cast on his left hand and Delmas has been out since hurting his right knee on Thanksgiving against the Packers.
