Dan Campbell shared good news on the Lions' injury front on Sunday afternoon.
Starting cornerback D.J. Reed has missed time recently throughout Detroit training camp, but Campbell said on Sunday that it's not a major concern.
"Yeah, Reed, that's not a major thing. His is really more kind of groin and so that's not a major issue. We feel good about that. When he's ready, he'll be ready to go," Campbell said.
That's encouraging to hear about Reed. The 5-foot-9, 190-pound corner is expected to be a key playmaker on the back end of a Detroit defense that is still nursing star safeties Kerby Joseph and Brian Branch back to health.
After a terrific start to the 2025 season, a hamstring injury sidelined Reed for six games and his production dropped off when he returned. But, if Reed can remain healthy this season, the Lions hope to see the player that limited opposing passers to just a 61.3 rating and zero touchdowns when they targeted him over the first month of last season.
