The Detroit Lions faced injuries in their game against the Cincinnati Bengals, but Coach Dan Campbell reported mostly positive news regarding player recoveries.
Taylor Decker’s Situation
Taylor Decker did not play due to a persistent shoulder injury. Coach Campbell indicated that the team decided to rest him to improve his chances of recovery, though it’s uncertain if he’ll be out longer.
Campbell noted that Decker’s recovery has been slow, with diminishing results each week. The decision was made to give him more time for healing and strength recovery.
Kalif Raymond and Giovanni Manu
In the game, Kalif Raymond sustained a head injury during a punt return and was later ruled out with a neck injury. His availability for next week’s game remains uncertain, but Campbell believes it isn’t serious.
For Decker, Giovanni Manu filled in but had an inconsistent performance, allowing multiple sacks. Campbell emphasized the need for Manu to learn from these experiences to improve.
Other Injury Updates
Cornerback Terrion Arnold also suffered a shoulder injury during the game and did not return. Campbell provided no significant updates, stating more information would be available on Monday.
Overall, the team is monitoring injuries closely and remains hopeful about their players’ recoveries in the coming weeks.
