The Lions’ depleted roster took another hit early in Sunday’s game at Dallas.

Wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown left the game late in the first quarter with a concussion and will not return.

The Lions (1-5) entered Sunday’s game against the Cowboys without D’Andre Swift (ankle, shoulder) and D.J. Chark (ankle). Other inactives Sunday included CB Will Harris, DL Charles Harris, DL Michael Brockers and S Ifeatu Melifonwu.

St. Brown appeared to sustain the concussion on the Lions’ second drive when he took a shot to the back of the head while being tackled.

The second-year wideout, off to a hot start this season, went to the blue tent and emerged without his helmet and went straight to the locker room.

Team officials announced he would not return.

Prior to Sunday’s game St. Brown had 27 catches for 271 yards and three touchdowns in four games.
