Terrion Arnold injury update: Lions CB exits game, questionable to return

Lions first round pick Terrion Arnold has been injured in a number of games early on in his NFL career. Unfortunately for Detroit, he got banged up yet again and had to exit the first half of their game against Arizona on Sunday. He is questionable to return to the game with a knee injury, according to the Lions’ Twitter page.

Arnold has battled a number of injuries early in the 2024 season. He returned to the game on Sunday, so that’s good news for the franchise. The Lions are hoping the former Crimson Tide star can be an instant impact player in their secondary, elevating their defense to the next level in 2024.

Last season, the Lions had one of the best seasons in franchise history, making it all the way to the 2024 NFC Championship Game, where they lost a heartbreaker to the San Francisco 49ers. They’ve still got a loaded roster. The team also returns Ben Johnson, one of the best offensive coordinators in the NFL. The Lions would be wise to take advantage of their limited opportunity window.
