Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell confirmed the suspected bad news regarding cornerback Ennis Rakestraw’s injury. Per Campbell, Rakestraw is expected to be out for some time.
“It’s a shoulder,” Campbell said. “I think it’s going to be a while. At best, I think it’s going to be a while.”
Campbell noted that they’re still doing tests for Rakestraw, so they aren’t ready to commit to any specific diagnosis or timeline.
“I hate it for the kid. You hate it,” Campbell said. “It’s not his fault. Just one of those tough deals. All you can do is try to get it better, rehab, come back stronger, and move on.
