Detroit Lions' Kasey Redfern has torn ACL; 4 punters working out today

Wochit

Kasey Redfern suffered three torn ligaments in his knee in Sunday's win over the Arizona Cardinals, and the Detroit Lions are auditioning replacement punters today.

Redfern, who went undrafted out of Wofford in 2014, won the Lions' punting job with a strong preseason and made his NFL debut Sunday.

He kicked a 50-yard punt on his first punt of the game and sent the opening kickoff into the end zone, but he was hurt late in the first quarter when he tried scrambling for a first down after dropping a punt in his own end zone.
