Detroit Lions Injury Update: Dan Campbell gives update on Ragnow, Anzalone, and McNeil

In a recent update from Detroit Lions‘ coach Dan Campbell, the team’s injury status post their victory over the New Orleans

Saints has come into sharper focus. While speaking to the media on Monday afternoon, Campbell gave an injury update on

center Frank Ragnow, linebacker Alex Anzalone, and defensive tackle Alim McNeill.

Campbell on Frank Ragnow

Center Frank Ragnow, a crucial component of the Lions’ offense, sustained a knee injury during the game. While Campbell

expressed optimism about Ragnow’s condition, he also indicated that Ragnow might miss the upcoming game. Given Ragnow’s

significance, his potential absence could be a significant blow to the team.

“I feel like more than anything, we got good news,” Campbell said. “But that doesn’t mean that he’s going to be available this week.”

On a positive note, linebacker Alex Anzalone might return for the next game against the Chicago Bears. Anzalone, enjoying his

best career year with impressive statistics, was missed in the Saints game. However, Campbell commended the performance of the

linebacker group in his absence.

“I think there’s a chance (he plays). Yeah. I do,” Campbell said.

“I thought the linebacker room played at a high level,” Campbell said. “I thought that group as a whole played really well for us. The

whole, they played winning football. (Derrick) Barnes was all over the field. Played fast, physical. I thought it was one of the best

games Jack (Campbell) has played. Played well in space.”

Campbell on Alim McNeill

The most concerning update comes for defensive tackle Alim McNeill. Campbell mentioned that McNeill is “a little banged up” and

might not play in the upcoming week.

“Mac’s a little banged up,” Campbell said. “We’ll know more on him probably in I would say a couple of days. So, there’s a chance he

may not be up (this week) either.”
