Kevin Smith hurt in practice

[lp4ever41]

Kevin Smith limped off the field after a collision with Tony Scheffler in Wednesday's practice.
The two players were looking the other way and didn't see other. One reported described the hit on Smith as "nasty," and trainers had to help him up. The Lions closed practice to the media shortly thereafter, so there's no update just yet on Smith's status.

That dude is snake bitten, I guess along with all our RBs. When does the curse of Barry officially become entrenched into the vernacular?

Looks like all is well...

According to Lions coach Jim Schwartz, both Kevin Smith and Tony Scheffler were able to finish practice after a nasty collision on Wednesday.
Schwartz assured both his players were "fine" after a thundering encounter that left Smith momentarily staggered. Unless Smith wakes up with unusual soreness Thursday, it appears he escaped the incident without tweaking the ankle injury that's dogged him since Thanksgiving. As long as he's healthy, Smith will dominate the snaps in Detroit's backfield against the Saints.

We need Smith to run like he did against Carolina if we have any shot in hell of winning...
