Terrion Arnold Gives Update on Foot Injury During Lions vs. Vikings Match

by

The Detroit Lions’ 2024-2025 NFL season has quieted doubters, with Dan Campbell’s team wrapping up their regular season at a strong 15-2. However, recent on-field exploits have taken a backseat due to the injury-induced absence of rookie cornerback Terrion Arnold during the Lions’ game against the Minnesota Vikings. Fans are expressing worry about Arnold’s health and his potential availability for upcoming games.

Here’s everything fans need to know about Terrion Arnold’s latest injury.

What happened to Terrion Arnold?

During their latest win against the Vikings, which ended 31-9, Terrion Arnold sustained an injury to his right foot.

During the third quarter of the game, Arnold tried to prevent Aaron Jones from advancing but was inadvertently stepped on by teammate Al Quadin-Muhammad, resulting in an injury. The Lions’ medical staff attended to Arnold shortly after and had to remove him from the field in a stretcher. Kindle Vildor, aged 27, came in as a substitute for Arnold.

Although Terrion Arnold left the game earlier than expected due to an injury, it appears that the injury might not be as severe as some fans initially thought. According to Detroit Free Press, in a post-game interview, Arnold expressed optimism by saying, “I’m ready to play.

As a gamer, I’d rephrase that as: “After undergoing X-ray examinations on my injury, it turns out everything’s clear. That’s the good news! But hey, even in this tough spot, I found a moment to reach out to the Big Guy upstairs. You know, just putting my faith in Him. And with a bye week coming up, I’m counting on our top-notch medical team to help me bounce back. We’re keeping things in divine hands and trusting the process.

After securing the NFC North championship with their win against the Vikings, the Lions have earned a first-round playoff break and will immediately participate in the divisional round, starting on January 18.
