Thanksgiving didn’t end the way Lions fans hoped. In a game where Detroit was already battling to keep momentum, star wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown suffered a concerning ankle injury that immediately shifted the entire tone of the day. What started as a spirited matchup quickly turned into a sideline scene that had every fan holding their breath.
St. Brown was visibly in pain after the play, limping toward the sideline as trainers rushed over. Even though he attempted to keep his composure, his frustration was unmistakable. Losing a player of his impact — especially in a nationally televised game — felt like a gut punch to an already struggling Lions offense.
The team hasn’t released a full update yet, but early signs suggest Detroit may need to prepare for at least a short-term absence. With crucial games coming up and playoff hopes on the line, this is the last kind of setback Dan Campbell’s squad needed.
For now, all eyes are on Detroit’s medical staff and how quickly St. Brown can bounce back. Lions Nation is hoping this scare isn’t as serious as it looked — because replacing Amon-Ra is easier said than done.
