Lions Running Back Likely Out In Week 4

 

The Detroit Lions, despite the 1-2 record in 2022 have been playing very well, on the back of great starts from Jared Goff, Jeff Okudah and Amon-Ra St. Brown, but one player who got off to a hotter start than all of them in Week 1 was D'andre Swift, who tallied almost 150 yards rushing and a Touchdown. Unfortunately over the past two weeks, he hasn't been as effective, and in Week 4, along with St. Brown, it appears that Detroit will be without their star running back.

Thankfully, for the first time in a long time, it appears that Detroit have the depth to cover significant absences, as Jamaal Williams played a key role in the close loss to Minnesota in Week 3, putting up 90 rushing yards to go along with two Touchdown's.

The Lions match up with Seattle as they look to get back to 2-2 on the season, and with the way they've started under head coach Dan Campbell, there's no reason why they shouldn't compete, even without their two biggest stars.
