How injuries have derailed the Detroit Lions’ season

After the Week 1 loss to the New York Jets, a tone was set for the Detroit Lions‘ 2018 season. This year was going to be an uphill battle. With a revamped roster and a new head coach, things were going to be a lot different for the team coming off two consecutive 9-7 seasons.
