ALLEN PARK, Mich. -- Detroit Lions coach Jim Schwartz said quarterback Matthew Stafford still isn't healthy enough to play.
Shaun Hill will start Sunday for the winless Lions at home against the St. Louis Rams.
Stafford hasn't played since he injured his right shoulder during the season-opening game at Chicago last month.
Schwartz said Stafford has begun to throw and his rehabilitation is on schedule. The team hasn't provided a timetable for Stafford's possible return.
Stafford, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2009 draft, has played in 11 games and will miss his 10th when he watches Detroit face St. Louis.
Hill has completed 60 percent of his passes for 991 yards and five touchdowns with seven interceptions in four games this season.
