Injury Bug flying around allen park again

[hankpav53]

ALLEN PARK, Mich. -- Detroit Lions cornerback Eric Wright has injured his right leg.

Wright took himself out of practice Monday morning and had the inside of his right leg stretched. He went back in, then took himself out a few plays later.

The projected starter later had his right groin wrapped with ice.

Chris Houston, the other starting cornerback, also is injured. Aaron Berry and Brandon McDonald have been pushed into first-string roles during practice.

Detroit plays its second preseason game Friday at Cleveland, Wright's former team.



Wright and Houston are down today.... MEPOIAVMPOIEj. i hate this shit. why the fuck can't we stay healthy, i honestly don't get it, i feel like teams like the patriots and colts never have this issue (besides brady 08)... so fucking annoyed

That's because you don't pay attention to teams like the Pats and Indy. They have just as many injuries as the Lions.

With the loss of the offseason programs, this year is going to set new records for ligament strains and muscle pulls.

They'll be fine though. Other than Leshoure, nobody has sustained a season threatening injury. Fairley is missing some time, but he'll be back early.

Backus' status was already reduced from "Long Term"

Better now than game 1

I just heard this as well. I hope it is not serious.

Sounds like a pull, or a strain, or a cramp. Doesn't sound serious at all:

Injuries will happen but funny how the game last Friday went injury free but they can't make it through a practice.

Some guys do not like to practice.. i just hope these are all minor Injuries...You scan a lot of teams and they all have guys banged up..

 

[grandy]

Wright just said on Twitter it isnt anything to worry about and he will be fine.
