Lions Lose Starting CBs D.J. Reed and Terrion Arnold to Injuries in 34-10 Win Over Browns

Dan Campbell says D.J. Reed is unlikely for Week 5 as Detroit evaluates its banged-up secondary.

Overview

  • Reed suffered a hamstring injury and was carted off; team PR listed him as questionable, and Campbell said he cannot imagine Reed playing next week pending further tests.
  • Arnold exited in the third quarter with a shoulder injury that Campbell characterized as less significant than Reed’s, though his Week 5 availability remains uncertain.
  • Safety Kerby Joseph left late in the first half with a knee issue and returned in the third quarter.
  • Detroit leaned on Amik Robertson, Khalil Dorsey and Rock Ya-Sin at cornerback, with Avonte Maddox filling snaps on the back end.
  • The defense produced three turnovers and three sacks to secure the 34-10 victory and move to 3-1, as outside chatter raises speculative options for veteran CB help such as Asante Samuel Jr.
