Jameson Williams required emergency surgery, but Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell said, “He’s at the point of death.”
Early in the second half, the awful day for the Detroit Lions got even worse. Midway through the third quarter, Mohamed Ibrahim, who was only added to the practice squad this past week, caught a kickoff but was severely injured in the middle of the return play. Eventually, someone would have to carte him off.
Coach Dan Campbell claims that after Ibrahim’s dislocated hip required immediate surgery, he was sent to a nearby hospital.
During his press conference following the game, Campbell stated, “Mo is in the hospital, and he’s having surgery right now.” “It seems like he will be alright, but he will be spending the night here. He is resilient. That’s terrible for him.
Ibrahim is having a terrible break because he has battled injuries for a large portion of his football career. He sustained a horrific Achilles injury in the Minnesota Gophers’ season-opening match in 2021. Then, during the Lions’ training camp this year, he sustained an injury that put him on injured reserve until he was able to work out an injury settlement with the team.
For the running backs of the Lions, it’s another difficult injury. Due to a shoulder injury, Zonovan Knight has already missed the entire season. Craig Reynolds played through his own hamstring issue on Sunday; Jahmyr Gibbs just returned after missing a few games due to injury; and David Montgomery is expected to miss more time due to a rib injury.
“Kalif is doing well. Campbell remarked, “He’ll be fine, but he had some cramps at the end.”
The Lions will play the Las Vegas Raiders on “Monday Night Football” in Detroit the following week, giving them an extra day to get ready.
