Lions punter Kasey Redfern has torn ACL, MCL in kicking leg

ALLEN PARK, Mich. -- Detroit Lions punter Kasey Redfern tore the ACL, MCL and part of the patellar tendon in his kicking leg Sunday in the team's 35-23 win over Arizona, according to a source.

The news was first reported by the Free Press.

Redfern's injury came after he dropped a snap on his second career punt in the first half. He then chose to try and run the ball, getting 10 yards out of the end zone before being tackled by Ifeanyi Momah as he was running along the sideline.
