Report: Josh Wilson headed to injured reserve

The nine-year veteran's season is over thanks to a significant knee injury suffered during the Packers game.

Injury scythed its way through the Lions secondary on Sunday. Already missing Rashean Mathis, placed on injured reserve the week before, the unit nevertheless performed admirably en route to a historic 18-16 victory over the Green Bay Packers. However, as the game wound to a close, several cornerbacks were taken from the field, wounded and suffering. On Tuesday, reports surfaced that the Detroit Lions would place Josh Wilson on injured reserve, effectively ending his season.
