ALLEN PARK, MI (AP) --       ALLEN PARK, Mich. (AP) - Detroit running back Kevin Smith has
missed practice after aggravating a shoulder injury in the Lions'
loss to St. Louis.
      Also Wednesday, quarterback Matthew Stafford and wide receiver
Calvin Johnson were limited in practice, both with right knee
injures.
      Stafford took every snap in Detroit's 17-10 loss to the Rams on
Sunday, but Johnson has missed the Lions' past two games. Coach Jim
Schwartz says Johnson likely will see more practice time Thursday
and Friday, but his availability for Sunday's game at Seattle (2-5)
will be a game-time decision.
      Smith has rushed 125 times for 393 yards and three touchdowns.
Johnson leads Detroit (1-6) with 325 receiving yards and has one of
the Lions' four TD receptions.
