The Detroit Lions are dealing with another injury setback as they’ve officially placed one of their starting guards on injured reserve, a move that will sideline him for at least four weeks. In response, the team has promoted a linebacker from the practice squad to fill the vacant roster spot.
The loss is a significant one for Detroit’s offensive line, which has already been hit hard by injuries in recent weeks. With multiple linemen missing practice and the team still searching for consistency up front, this latest blow only adds to head coach Dan Campbell’s growing list of challenges.
The promoted linebacker, meanwhile, will have a chance to prove himself as the Lions continue to battle through a tough stretch of the season. Detroit’s depth and resilience will be tested yet again — and how they respond could define their playoff push.
