We finally know what’s ailing linebacker DeAndre Levy.
After weeks of writing about an “undisclosed” injury keeping the All-Pro linebacker out of practice, the first injury report of the season lists Levy as dealing with a hip injury.
He hasn’t practiced the last two weeks and his status for Sunday’s opener in San Diego is uncertain at this point. The Lions kept seven linebackers on their 53-man roster knowing Levy’s injury could cost him some time.
Levy led the Lions with 151 tackles and the NFL with 117 solo tackles last season.
