    Lions injury update: Latest news on Alex Anzalone, Penei Sewell


    When it became clear that the Detroit Lions were going to play their starters against the San Francisco 49ers, the goal for many became clear: leave Santa Clarita without any major injuries. It appears the Lions succeeded in that goal, but coach Dan Campbell did provide two very important injury updates in his post-game press conference after the team’s 40-34 win.

    First, there’s All-Pro right tackle Penei Sewell. Lions writers on hand noticed that Sewell left the first half early, missing Detroit’s final kneel down of the half to get to the locker room. Sewell did return to the game and play the entire second half, but Campbell said that he suffered a thumb injury in the game, although it’s not considered a long-term issue.

    “No, shouldn’t be (long-term),” Campbell said. “He should be good.”

    Campbell didn’t expand beyond that, so it’s unclear if his status for Sunday’s finale against the Minnesota Vikings is in question at all, but he didn’t sound overly concerned. Detroit will owe its first injury report on Wednesday.

    The other injury update was on linebacker Alex Anzalone, who has been on injured reserve since breaking his forearm in Week 11 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Anzalone hasn’t returned to practice yet, but Campbell keeps mentioning he’s close to returning. Could he potentially return for Week 18?

    “We’ll see,” Campbell said. “He’s doing well. He’s close. He’s really close.”

    The Lions linebacker room has struggled without Anzalone, Derrick Barnes, Malcolm Rodriguez, and Jalen Reeves-Maybin—all on injured reserve—over the last couple of months. Reeves-Maybin did return on Monday against the 49ers, but it’s clear Detroit’s second level of their defense needs more help. We’ll see if Anzalone has enough time to turn things around in a short week to appear in the Lions’ all-important regular season finale with the No. 1 seed on the line.



    The Detroit Lions have provided an injury update on linebacker Alex Anzalone and offensive tackle Penei Sewell. Anzalone, who suffered a shoulder injury in the Lions’ last game, is listed as day-to-day and his status for the upcoming game is uncertain. Sewell, who has been dealing with a knee injury, is also day-to-day and will be a game-time decision. Stay tuned for more updates on these key players as the Lions prepare for their next matchup. #OnePride #LionsInjuryUpdate

  • Lions’ Dan Campbell gives injury update on Penei Sewell, hints at return of Alex Anzalone

    Lions’ Dan Campbell gives injury update on Penei Sewell, hints at return of Alex Anzalone


    Santa Clara, Calif. — Offensive tackle Penei Sewell struck fear into the hearts of Detroit Lions fans everywhere when he left the field before time ran out in the first half of Monday night’s game against the 49ers.

    After the game, Lions coach Dan Campbell said Sewell had a thumb injury, but it was nothing to be concerned about in the long term. Sewell, who was Second-Team All-Pro in 2023, is the catalyst for a Lions offensive line that many consider the best in the league. He returned for the third quarter and helped jump-start a strong second-half performance in a 40-34 win at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara.

    Sewell is one of the most durable players on the team. He’s missed just one game in his NFL career, which came in his rookie season after he tested positive for Covid.



    Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell provided an injury update on rookie offensive lineman Penei Sewell during a recent press conference. Sewell, who has been dealing with a shoulder injury, is expected to return to practice soon and could be ready to play in the upcoming game.

    Campbell also hinted at the return of linebacker Alex Anzalone, who has been sidelined with a hamstring injury. Anzalone has been making progress in his recovery and is close to being cleared to return to action.

    The potential return of both Sewell and Anzalone would be a welcome boost for the Lions as they look to improve their performance on both sides of the ball. Fans will be eagerly anticipating their return to the field and the impact they can make on the team’s upcoming games.

  • Detroit Lions injury updates: Latest on Graham Glasgow, Alex Anzalone

    Detroit Lions injury updates: Latest on Graham Glasgow, Alex Anzalone


    More Detroit Lions players will be returning the the lineup, and potentially soon. Lions coach Dan Campbell offered more injury updates on Monday after the team’s 34-17 win over the Chicago Bears, and it was mostly very positive. Here’s the latest.

    Graham Glasgow will be back… and will start

    Lions left guard Graham Glasgow missed last week with a knee injury, but Campbell indicated he expects the veteran offensive lineman to return this week.

    “Yeah, I see Graham coming back,” Campbell said. “I think he’s going to be ready to roll.”

    In Glasgow’s place, the Lions gave rookie Christian Mahogany his first career start against the Bears. Campbell believed the sixth-round pick’s starting debut was promising.

    “It was encouraging,” Campbell said. “I did think he tried to play violent. It was not too big for him. I thought Frank (Ragnow) and (Taylor) Decker and them helped him out, sandwiched between those two. And I thought, man, first time out—he was another guy, he didn’t get to play any preseason as a rookie, but he’s continued to just get better and better.”

    Regardless, the job is still Glasgow’s, and he’s expected to start against the 49ers.

    “He’s going to slip right back at left guard and start for us and be great,” Campbell said.

    Jalen Reeves-Maybin could return this week

    Last week, linebacker Jalen Reeves-Maybin returned to practice, starting his 21-day evaluation window while he remains on injured reserve. Campbell wouldn’t fully commit to anything, but he noted that Reeves-Maybin could potentially play this week.

    “We’ll see where Germ (Reeves-Maybin) is at. He’s somebody that’s a potential candidate (to return), Jalen Reeves-Maybin,” Campbell said. “We started him last week, he got a practice or two, we’re going to give him more this week, see how he feels, where it’s at. He is somebody that could potentially be brought up.”

    If Reeves-Maybin can’t play, the Lions have a plethora of linebackers that they’ve relied upon lately. Against the Bears, the Lions used a combination of Jack Campbell, Ben Niemann, Trevor Nowaske, Ezekiel Turner, and Anthony Pittman.

    Niemann got an unprompted shoutout from his head coach on Monday.

    “Ben Niemann did some really good things,” Campbell noted.

    Alex Anzalone may not be ready this week

    Anzalone has been on injured reserve since Week 11 when he broke his forearm against the Jaguars. While the veteran linebacker is nearing a return, Campbell isn’t sure he’ll practice this week.

    “It’s close. I don’t know about this week, (but) it’s close,” Campbell said.

    Anzalone is eligible to come off injured reserve whenever he is ready.



    The Detroit Lions have been dealing with some key injuries as they head into the upcoming season. Here are the latest updates on two players who are currently on the mend:

    Graham Glasgow: The Lions offensive lineman suffered a knee injury during training camp and has been sidelined for the past few weeks. Glasgow is currently rehabbing the injury and is expected to be ready for the start of the regular season. His presence on the offensive line will be crucial for the Lions, as they look to protect quarterback Jared Goff and open up holes for running back D’Andre Swift.

    Alex Anzalone: The Lions linebacker has been dealing with a hamstring injury that has kept him out of practice for the past week. Anzalone is considered day-to-day and is working towards a return to full health. His absence has been felt in the Lions’ defense, as Anzalone is expected to be a key contributor in the linebacker corps this season.

    As the Lions continue to navigate through preseason and prepare for the regular season, keeping an eye on the progress of Glasgow and Anzalone will be important in assessing the team’s overall health and potential success on the field. Stay tuned for more updates on these key players as the season approaches.

  • Lions injury updates on David Montgomery, Aidan Hutchinson, Carlton Davis, Alex Anzalone

    Lions injury updates on David Montgomery, Aidan Hutchinson, Carlton Davis, Alex Anzalone


    The Detroit Lions have been ravaged by injuries during the 2024 campaign, but the hope is that they will get some key starters back by the playoffs, a list that includes running back David Montgomery, edge rusher Aidan Hutchinson, linebacker Alex Anzalone and cornerback Carlton Davis.

    Montgomery suffered an MCL injury in Week 15 that was initially believed to be a season-ending issue. However, after getting more opinions, there is hope he’ll be able to return in the postseason.

    Davis is recovering from a fractured jaw that is expected to sideline him six weeks. Hutchinson has a broken tibia and fibula, but there has been optimism he could be back if the Lions make a deep playoff run.

    Last but not least, Anzalone is working his way back from a broken forearm suffered in Week 11 that has a timeline of six-to-eight weeks.

    On Sunday, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport provided some updates on Hutchinson, Montgomery and Anzalone. The most recent update on Davis comes from head coach Dan Campbell.

    David Montgomery injury update

    According to Rapoport, the goal is for Montgomery to be back by the second round of the playoffs. If the Lions can secure a first-round bye, it’s possible Montgomery doesn’t miss any playoff games.

    “He now is going to rehab with a realistic goal of being back for the divisional round of the playoffs,” Rapoport said of Montgomery. “So about a month from now for Montgomery.

    Aidan Hutchinson injury update

    As has been widely reported, Hutchinson is on track to make it back by the Super Bowl, Rapoport reported. Hutchinson recently revealed that is indeed his target return date during an appearance on “The Squeeze” podcast.

    “I’m on track for my goal of returning for the Super Bowl,” Hutchinson said. “And so, I keep telling all the boys when I see them in the (Lions) facility, ‘you’ve just to get there. And I promise you I’m going to be back.’”

    Alex Anzalone injury update

    Rapoport added that the expectation is Anzalone will be back by the playoffs, but he didn’t offer a specific round for that return like he did with Montgomery. The first round of the postseason will be eight weeks from his injury, so it’s possible Anzalone is back by then if the Lions don’t win the No. 1 seed.

    Carlton Davis injury update

    Davis’ timeline to return from his fractured jaw is six weeks, which would mean he’s in play for the NFC Championship Game. But Campbell’s latest update put a damper on that hope.

    “I’d say nothing has changed. As of right now, it doesn’t look optimistic to get him back,” Campbell said of Davis. “Doesn’t mean he won’t, but I don’t foresee that right now.”

    Ideally, the Lions lock up the No. 1 seed. That would put the Lions in position to not be missing Anzalone or Montgomery for a single playoff game. But when it comes to Davis and Hutchinson, a run deep into the playoffs is the only chance Detroit has to see them on the field again this season.

    Here are the latest injury updates on key players for the Detroit Lions:

    1. David Montgomery: The running back is dealing with a shoulder injury that has sidelined him for several games. He is currently listed as day-to-day and his status for the next game is uncertain. The team is closely monitoring his progress and will provide updates as they become available.

    2. Aidan Hutchinson: The defensive end suffered a knee injury in the last game and is undergoing further evaluation to determine the severity of the injury. Hutchinson has been a key player for the Lions defense and his absence would be a significant blow to the team. Fans are hoping for a speedy recovery and a return to the field soon.

    3. Carlton Davis: The cornerback is nursing a hamstring injury that has kept him out of practice for the past week. The team is taking a cautious approach with Davis to ensure he fully recovers before returning to action. His availability for the upcoming game is uncertain, but the coaching staff remains hopeful that he will be able to play.

    4. Alex Anzalone: The linebacker is dealing with a groin injury that has limited his participation in practice. Anzalone’s status for the next game is up in the air, but the team is hopeful that he will be able to suit up and contribute on the field. The coaching staff is closely monitoring his progress and will make a decision closer to game time.

  • Alex Anzalone has message for Lions fans after Vikings urge fans to invade Ford Field

    Alex Anzalone has message for Lions fans after Vikings urge fans to invade Ford Field


    The Detroit Lions and Minnesota Vikings are set to do battle in a crucial Week 18 game at Ford Field. The winner of that contest will grab the No. 1 seed and the NFC North title.

    While the Lions had a shot to wrap things up in both areas going into Week 17, the Vikings spoiled that by beating the Green Bay Packers, which will force Detroit to beat the Vikings in order to get a first-round bye and home-field advantage.

    After the Vikings beat the Packers at U.S. Bank Stadium on Sunday, Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison, who totaled six catches for 69 yards and a touchdown in the win, urged Minnesota’s fans to invade Ford Field for the upcoming showdown between the NFC North rivals.

    “It’s going to be tough,” Addison said of the matchup. “We need all the Vikings fans heading to Detroit this weekend, and we’re going to put it out for them.”

    After catching wind of that, Lions linebacker Alex Anzalone had a message for Lions fans: don’t let it happen.

    “One Pride, you know the drill,” Anzalone tweeted.

    Lions fans always show out, and that’s especially true for a massively important game like this one. Knowing that, Vikings fans are going to have a tough time making a dent in the crowd disparity.

    Anzalone suffered a broken forearm in Week 11 and is one of the injured players the Lions are hoping to get back, either before or during the playoffs. Head coach Dan Campbell recently said Anzalone is “close” to returning.

    “It’s close,” Campbell said of Anzalone on Monday. “I don’t know about this week. It’s close.”

    The Lions did not designate Anzalone to return from injured reserve, so he won’t be back for the San Francisco 49ers game on Monday night. However, there is a chance he can make it back for the Vikings game. If not, it seems almost certain Anzalone will be ready to go for the playoffs, barring any setbacks.

    Alex Anzalone has message for Lions fans after Vikings urge fans to invade Ford Field

    In response to the Minnesota Vikings urging their fans to invade Ford Field for their upcoming matchup against the Detroit Lions, linebacker Alex Anzalone has a message for Lions fans: don’t let them take over our home turf.

    Anzalone, who has been a key leader on the Lions defense this season, took to social media to rally the Detroit faithful and remind them that Ford Field is our house and we won’t let any opposing fans come in and take over.

    “Hey Lions fans, let’s show the Vikings who owns Ford Field,” Anzalone wrote. “We need all of you to come out and be loud, be proud, and support us as we defend our home turf. Let’s make it a sea of Honolulu blue and silver and show them what real Detroit pride looks like.”

    With the Lions sitting at a 3-3 record and looking to build momentum, having a strong home-field advantage could make all the difference in securing a crucial win against a division rival like the Vikings.

    So, Lions fans, let’s heed Anzalone’s call and show up in full force to support our team and make Ford Field a fortress that no opposing team can invade. Let’s show the Vikings and the rest of the NFL that Detroit is a force to be reckoned with. #OnePride #DefendTheDen
