Campbell gave updates on the three players injured in Monday\u2019s practice<\/a>: Dominic Lovett, Jamarco Jones, and Pat O\u2019Connor. The good news is that all three appeared to avoid major injury. The bad news is that all are expected to be out for at least a week. At tackle, both Mason Miller and Justin Herron had to pull double duty at right and left tackle, respectively, with the second and third teams. Meanwhile, Giovanni Manu and Penei Sewell were with the first team.<\/p>\n\u201cEverything\u2019s good,\u201d Vaki told Pride of Detroit after Monday\u2019s practice. \u201cI\u2019m just happy to be back out here with the boys, man. Being able to watch it on film and being out there on the field are two different things, and man, you definitely need these on-field reps.\u201d<\/p>\n
That suggests Vaki\u2019s absence may not be injury-related. We\u2019ll see on Friday.<\/p>\n
Brodric Martin has now missed two consecutive practices for unknown reasons. To help the Lions\u2019 nose tackle depth, we saw some Chris Smith playing at that spot with the third team.<\/p>\n
Patrick took part in individual drills before walking off the field on his own. I didn\u2019t see what happened to him, and he was not escorted to the locker room by a team trainer. At first, I thought it may have been a bathroom break, but he did not return to practice. The team did not provide an update on his status.<\/p>\n
Patrick\u2019s absence during team drills gave a little more first-team opportunities to Kalif Raymond and Tom Kennedy \u2014the large majority of which went to Raymond.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Detroit Lions toned down practice a bit after a physical Monday practice.
