Zenner: With pain subsiding, he might run soon

Zach Zenner reached for his backpack in very robotic fashion, bending slightly at the waist, grabbing the straps slowly and lifting it off of the floor.

Five days after he broke four ribs in five different places and suffered a partially collapsed lung, Zenner was back at the Detroit Lions' practice facility for a medical checkup today.

He spent five minutes talking to reporters while waiting for his Uber driver and said that the immense pain he felt during Sunday's 37-34 win over the Chicago Bears has subsided and that he could be back running soon.
