The Detroit Lions injuries continue to mount as the week rolls on. The newest addition to the injury report is rookie tight end Sam LaPorta, who was not at practice on Thursday as the team prepares for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Let’s take a look at Thursday’s report.
Note: Any new changes from yesterday’s injury report will be bolded.
No practice on Thursday
- RB Jahmyr Gibbs (hamstring)
- RB Zonovan Knight (shoulder)
- TE Sam LaPorta (calf) — New injury
- TE James Mitchell (hamstring)
- LG Jonah Jackson (ankle)
- C Frank Ragnow (toe/rest) — likely a veteran rest day
- DB Brian Branch (ankle)
- CB Emmanuel Moseley (knee) — torn ACL, expected to be placed on IR
LaPorta suffering a mid-week injury is not ideal timing, as we saw with Gibbs and Mitchell last week.
