Lions Star WR Amon-Ra St. Brown Injured on Thanksgiving
27 Nov
Summary
- Amon-Ra St. Brown injured his leg during the Thanksgiving game.
- The receiver was able to walk off the field despite visible pain.
- His absence could impact the Lions' playoff aspirations.
The Detroit Lions faced a significant blow on Thanksgiving Day as star wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown suffered a leg injury during the first quarter of their game against the Green Bay Packers. The injury occurred on a running play, and St. Brown was seen being attended to on the field before returning to the locker room, albeit with a noticeable limp.
While St. Brown was able to exit the field on his own, the severity of his injury remains a concern for the Lions. Any prolonged absence could jeopardize the team's strong position in the NFC North division, where they are vying for the lead. St. Brown has been a pivotal offensive force for Detroit throughout the season, nearing another Pro Bowl-caliber performance.
This situation is compounded by existing injury concerns for the Lions, including the season-ending back injury of tight end Sam LaPorta and the inactive status of receiver Kalif Raymond and backup tight end Brock Wright. The team has also made roster adjustments by signing veteran receiver Tom Kennedy to bolster their receiving corps.
