Lions News Reports

If you happened to tune in for Sunday’s game between the Detroit Lions and the Green Bay Packers, you likely noticed that Lions CB Jeff Okudah made a pair of HUGE hits. The only problem is that the two hits came against his own teammates! During the game, Okudah hit both Julian Okwara and Kerby Joseph so hard that they exited the game and had to be evaluated for a concussion. Thankfully, Okwara was able to return to action, and though Joseph did not, he reportedly looked good to go after the conclusion of the game.
