The bye week is a week for healing, and no team needs it more than the Detroit Lions. Currently, the Lions have five players on injured reserve, one on non-football injury reserve, four on physically unable to perform reserve—to go along with five players who were ruled out of Sunday’s game with an injury and the handful of players who left Sunday’s game with a new injury.
The Lions are 1-4, beat up, and desperate for healthy bodies. It may not be enough to turn the season completely around, but Detroit could certainly use some help from these reinforcements to turn the 2022 season into a respectable season and play with a little more competitiveness than they did against the Patriots.
