Good News On The Injury Front


Just Want A Title

Recommended Posts

A number of Lions who had injuries last year should be G2G for Day 1 of Training camp.  Jeff Okudah, Frank Ragnow, TJ Hockenson Deshon Elliot and James Mitchell all have no limitations at the start of Training Camp.  Nothing but good news with this.  I wonder how long it will take Jerry Jacobs to get back on the field.

Detroit Lions place Romeo Okwara, Josh Paschal, Jason Cabinda reserve/PUP list

Quote

It’s notable that cornerback Jerry Jacobs was not placed on the reserve/PUP list, suggesting he could be close to coming back to the field after suffering a torn ACL in December. That being said, if he does not show enough progress, he can still be placed on the reserve/PUP list at the 53-man roster cut downs.

Sounds like Jerry Jacobs might be available soon. 

Onwuzurike is also notably not on the PUP list.

Edit: after further research, he's not eligible for the PUP list. oops

Personally, I think we need a back-up plan for Onwuzurike.  He may not be on the PUP but he hasn't had the reps to help him develop.  Pounding the table for Malcom Brown.

“If you’re asking me right now -- you’re twisting my arm -- I’m saying he’s not available for Philly,” head coach Dan Campbell said before practice on Thursday. “That’s me, but we’ll see.”

“I would say there’s no setbacks,” Campbell said. “He’s trending the right way, but it’s at a snail’s pace is the best way to say it. He’s doing everything we’re asking him to do, it is getting better, but I don’t know.”
