Cornerback Nolan Carroll left the game in the second quarter with an ankle injury. It was announced that Carroll went in for x-rays and was later officially ruled out for the rest of the game. The play happened on a Joique Bell run with 11:19 left in the half. Carroll needed a cart to get off the field. Rookie Eric Rowe took Carroll's place at right cornerback.
On the Eagles' opening drive, left tackle Jason Peters left the game with an ankle injury and is officially questionable to return.
Lions defensive end Jason Jones appeared to roll onto the back of Peters legs.
