There's no hope for the Detroit Lions if they lose to Matt Patricia & the Patriots

What this means for Quintez Cephus

With Cephus being placed on the Reserve/Injured list with an injured foot, this means that he will have to miss a minimum of four games for the Lions.

This is the second time in as many seasons that Cephus has landed on Injured Reserve. In 2021, he broke his collarbone and was forced to miss the final three months of the season.
