Jamison Crowder (hamstring) will not practice today.

Crowder injured his hamstring in yesterday’s practice, so his Week 2 status is now in doubt. This could be a similar situation to Kenny Golladay with the Lions after he was injured last Wednesday and was unable to play in the season opener. We’ll see how Crowder is listed on the final Week 2 injury report when it’s released tomorrow.
