Lions DB C.J. Gardner-Johnson Suffers Serious Leg Injury at Practice

Detroit Lions defensive back C.J. Gardner-Johnson was carted off the practice field during training camp with an injury to his right leg. The extent of the injury is still unknown, but teammates and coaches expressed concern for Gardner-Johnson, who was brought in as a key addition to the Lions' secondary. Gardner-Johnson had a strong season with the Philadelphia Eagles last year, leading the NFL in interceptions despite missing five games due to a lacerated kidney. The team is hopeful for his recovery but acknowledges the need for other players to step up in his absence.
