Forces key turnover in win
Barnes recorded two tackles (two solo), including one tackle for a loss, and a pass defensed in Thursday's 44-30 win over the Cowboys.
Analysis: Barnes had a very modest tackle total, leaving him with three or fewer tackles in four of his last five games. However, he still made a big impact on the game, picking off a deflected Dak Prescott pass on the first play of the third quarter to set up a Detroit touchdown two plays later. That was the first interception of Barnes' career.

Sack results in safety in Week 5

Analysis: Barnes finished second on Detroit in stops in the win.

Barnes has 2.0 sacks this season, which already ties the career-high mark he established as a rookie in 2021.

Past knee injury
Barnes (knee) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Browns, Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The Purdue product was a limited participant in practice both Wednesday and Thursday due to a knee injury. However, he upgraded to a full session Friday, suggesting he's ready to play in Sunday's affair. Barnes has recorded 19 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, over Detroit's first three games this season. He's expected to serve as one of the team's top outside linebackers in Week 4.

Limited in Thursday's practice
Barnes (knee) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Barnes has been working through a knee injury that he likely picked up during the Lions' 38-30 win over the Ravens on Monday. A full session Friday would likely clear Barnes of an injury tag heading into Sunday's home game against the Browns. The 2021 fourth-rounder has opened the regular season with 19 tackles (10 solo), including 1.0 sacks, across three games.

Considered limited Wednesday
Barnes (knee) was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's estimated injury report.
Analysis: Barnes was able to compile seven total tackles (four solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Monday's 38-30 win over the Ravens, but he may have left the contest a little worse for wear. The linebacker will have two more chances to log a full practice prior to Sunday's contest against the Browns.

Notches first sack Monday

Practices Friday
Barnes (knee/finger) was cleared to practice Friday, Nolan Bianchi of The Detroit News reports.
Analysis: Barnes was limited to just three regular-season games in 2024 after injuring his MCL and PCL in Week 3 against the Cardinals. The 2021 fourth-rounder returned to practice earlier this week, and although he left Thursday's session early due to a finger injury, he was cleared to participate in Friday's session. Barnes logged 81 tackles (42 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and one forced fumble over 16 regular-season games in 2023.

Sticking around in Motor City
Detroit signed Barnes (knee) to a three-year, $25.5 million extension Friday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Barnes only played in three games in the 2024 season due to suffering damage to his MCL and PCL in Week 3 at Arizona, and the Lions' defense seemed to feel the impact of his absence the rest of the way. He projects as one of Detroit's starting linebackers in 2025.

Won't return this season
Lions head coach Dan Campbell said Tuesday he does not expect Barnes (knee) to return from IR during the playoffs, Nolan Bianchi of The Detroit News reports.
Analysis: Barnes landed on IR back in Week 3 due to a knee injury, and while it initially appeared he could make a push to retake the field late in the playoffs, the fourth-year linebacker will instead turn his full attention toward the 2025 campaign. He's slated to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason.

Could return later in season
Barnes (knee) said Wednesday that he's not ruling out a return from injured reserve later this season, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Analysis: Barnes has been sidelined since the Lions' win over the Cardinals in Week 3, when he sustained injuries to his MCL and PCL. While he indicated he has a chance to play again in 2024, his odds of doing so would appear to be slim. Through the first three games of the season, the fourth-year linebacker recorded 10 tackles and one pass breakups across 114 defensive snaps.

Unlikely to return this season
Head coach Dan Campbell said Monday that the team will be fortunate to get Barnes (knee) back at any point this season, Colton Pouncy of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Barnes was placed on injured reserve Sept. 24 after suffering the knee injury in Week 3 against the Cardinals. Although the details of his injury are not known, it has been mentioned previously by Campbell that Barnes would miss a significant amount of time.

Officially placed on IR
The Lions placed Barnes (knee) on injured reserve Tuesday.
Analysis: Barnes will miss at least Detroit's next four games due to a knee injury sustained in Sunday's 20-13 win over the Cardinals. Coach Dan Campbell alluded to a significant recovery timetable for Barnes, so it's possible the starting linebacker could be out longer. Malcolm Rodriguez played a season-high 87 percent of defensive snaps Week 3 and figures to continue handling an expanded role versus the Seahawks on Sunday.

Out for foreseeable future
Lions head coach Dan Campbell said Monday that Barnes (knee) will miss "a significant amount of time," Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.
Analysis: Barnes was carted off during the second quarter of Sunday's 20-13 win over the Cardinals with a knee injury. Though Campbell didn't go into details regarding the nature of Barnes' knee injury while the Lions await a second opinion, the 25-year-old linebacker is expected to be placed on injured reserve, per Nolan Bianchi of The Detroit News. Barnes recorded 10 tackles and one pass breakup through the Lions' first three games.

Downgraded to out Sunday
The Lions downgraded Barnes (knee) to out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Cardinals.
Analysis: Barnes was carted to the locker room in the first half, so this was the logical endgame for the linebacker. Jack Campbell and Malcolm Rodriguez are likely to soak up the snaps for Detroit in the linebacker corps.

Carted off with knee injury
Barnes exited Sunday's game against the Cardinals with a knee injury and is questionable to return, Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Barnes had to be carted to the locker room in the second quarter. Prior to leaving, Barnes recorded one tackle (one solo). Starting LB Alex Anzalone (concussion) is already inactive for Week 3. Ben Niemann and Jalen Reeves-Maybin will be next up for snaps at linebacker for Detroit.

Participating in OTAs
Barnes (knee) participated in the Lions' OTA session Tuesday.
Analysis: Barnes was injured on the first defensive series of the Lions' NFC Championship Game loss to the 49ers and never returned, but the knee issue clearly wasn't overly serious. He started 13 of the 16 games he appeared in last season, finishing with a career-best 81 tackles (42 solo), one sack and one forced fumble on a career-high 705 defensive snaps.

Racks up 81 tackles in 2023
Barnes (knee) registered 81 tackles, 1.0 sacks and one forced fumble over 16 regular-season games in 2023.
Analysis: A strong summer propelled Barnes into the Week 1 starting lineup over first-round rookie Jack Campbell, and Barnes maintained a large role within Detroit's defense even as Campbell's role increased throughout the year. No play was bigger for Barnes than his game-sealing interception of Baker Mayfield in the playoffs to send Detroit to the NFC Championship Game, in which Barnes hurt his knee after just three plays. While the linebacker said at the time that he believed he avoided structural…read more

Leaves game with knee injury
Barnes (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the 49ers.
Analysis: Barnes sustained the knee injury on the 49ers' first drive of the game. While he's sidelined, James Houston and Jalen Reeves-Maybin are candidates to see more snaps at outside linebacker alongside starter Jack Campbell.

Whiffs with chance at safety
Barnes recorded five tackles (three solo) in Saturday's 20-19 loss at Dallas.
Analysis: Barnes looked like he was more or less back to his old self in his return from his shoulder injury, racking up tackles at a rate similar to what he had the rest of the season up to Week 17. However, he'll probably remember Saturday's game for a tackle he didn't make, when he came in unblocked on a blitz and missed a clear shot at Dak Prescott in the Cowboys' end zone. Barnes' missed opportunity for a safety turned into a 92-yard catch and run for CeeDee Lamb, which was arguably the difference…read more

Estimated as full participant
Barnes (shoulder) was listed as a full participant on the Lions' practice estimate Tuesday, Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The estimation signals Barnes is probably on track to play in Week 17 at Dallas. If he is available, he projects to start at linebacker next to Alex Anzalone and Jack Campbell on Saturday.

Inactive as expected
Barnes (shoulder) is inactive ahead of Sunday's game against the Vikings.
Analysis: Barnes suffered a shoulder injury in the Lions' Week 15 win over the Broncos, and he was listed as doubtful after a week of limited practice sessions, so it's no surprise that he'll miss the team's Christmas Eve divisional contest. Jalen Reeves-Maybin is expected to see more work in Detroit's linebacker corps with Barnes missing time.

Doubtful for Sunday
Barnes (shoulder) is listed as doubtful ahead of Sunday's game against the Vikings.
Analysis: The 24-year-old linebacker was able to return in the second-half Week 15's contest after sustaining a shoulder injury earlier in the game, but it appears that the issue will likely stop him from suiting up Sunday. If Barnes is unable to go Week 16, Jalen Reeves-Maybin is expected to get the nod as the team's top right outside linebacker.

Opens week with limited practice
Barnes (shoulder) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: Barnes injured his shoulder in the second quarter of Saturday's win over Denver but was able to return after halftime. That and his ability to practice Wednesday (albeit in limited fashion) are good signs that he'll be able to suit up Sunday versus the Vikings. Barnes has already set career highs with 577 defensive snaps and 71 tackles through 14 games this season. He's added one sack and one forced fumble.

Leading tackler in win
Barnes recorded nine total tackles (three solo), including one tackle for loss in Sunday's 33-28 win over the Saints.
Analysis: Barnes' nine stops were enough to tie Jack Campbell for the Lions' leading tackler in Week 13. The third-year linebacker out of Purdue is quietly having the best season of his career, as he's logged 61 total tackles, including four tackles for loss and one sack through Detroit's first 12 games. Barnes ranks second on the Lions in total tackles, and he'll look to continue his stretch of solid play as the year goes on.

Ties for team lead in tackles
Barnes logged six tackles with one TFL during Thursday's 21-20 win over the Chiefs.
Analysis: Barnes drew the start at linebacker next to Alex Anzalone, and he ended up tying his counterpart for the team lead in tackles despite seeing about half of the defensive snaps. However, Barnes averaged just 4.3 tackles per game while operating in a similar role down the stretch last season, and he figures to see less playing time as the campaign unfolds given the presence of first-round draft pick Jack Campbell.

Questionable for Saturday
Barnes (knee) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Panthers.
Analysis: Barnes has missed the last two games while dealing with a knee injury, though it appears he could be in line to return after returning to practice in a limited fashion Week 16. The second-year linebacker has recorded 39 tackles, one sack and one pass defended over 12 games this season, and he'll likely return to a rotational role alongside Malcolm Rodriguez and Alex Anzalone when healthy again.

Barnes (knee) is out for Sunday's game against the Jets, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

Ruled out
Barnes (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Vikings.
Analysis: Barnes didn't practice at all during Week 14 prep due to a knee injury he presumably suffered in Week 13, so it's not surprising to see him ruled out. In Barnes' absence, James Houston, Anthony Pittman and Chris Board are candidates for increased snaps.

Seven stops in massive win
Barnes recorded seven tackles (six solo) during Sunday's 31-18 victory versus the Giants.
Analysis: Barnes logged his third-best tackling performance of the season as the Lions rolled over the Giants in Week 11. While the linebacker did the majority of his work on defense (36 snaps), he also added one solo tackle over his 14 special-teams snaps. After playing just 88 defensive snaps and totaling 13 tackles over the first seven weeks of the season, Barnes has totaled 21 tackles while playing 119 of his 137 snaps on defense over the past three weeks.

Leads big defensive effort
Barnes recorded 12 tackles (four solo), including one sack, and added one pass defensed in Sunday's 15-9 win over Green Bay.
Analysis: Detroit's defense stymied Aaron Rodgers and the Packers all afternoon, and Barnes played a big part in that, more than doubling his previous season high with 12 stops. He also registered his first sack of the campaign when he brought down Rodgers after Green Bay had passed midfield late in the second quarter. Barnes played on 67 percent of the Lions' defensive snaps in the victory, by far his highest share of playing time so far this season.

In mix for starting role
Barnes is expected to compete for a starting role at linebacker in 2022, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.
Analysis: With Alex Anzalone and Jalen Reeves-Maybin scheduled for unrestricted free agency next month, Barnes and Josh Woods technically enter the offseason atop the depth chart at inside linebacker. However, the 2021 fourth-round pick may have a stronger hold on his perch than the undrafted Woods, who has 20 fewer tackles through four years than Barnes racked up during his rookie season alone. Unless Detroit makes more than one significant investment at the position this offseason, Barnes seems like a…read more

Barnes had seven tackles (four solo) during Sunday's 44-6 loss to Philadelphia.

Role expanding
With Detroit expected to move on from Jamie Collins, Barnes is positioned for an expanded role on defense, Chris Burke of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Burke notes that head coach Dan Campbell suggested this week that Barnes likely won't directly step into Collins' starting role and log close to 100 percent of the snaps. Instead, Alex Anzalone is expected to remain a key cog at inside linebacker while Barnes and Jalen Reeves-Maybin rotate in beside him. However, Reeves-Maybin has mostly been a special-teams player through five seasons in the league and Barnes is a fourth-round rookie who has impressed with his pass-rushing and tackling…read more
