Lions RB Jahmyr Gibbs was 'doing amazing stuff' before ankle injury cut short rookie camp

Jahmyr Gibbs made a memorable impression on his teammates on the first day of Detroit Lions rookie minicamp before suffering an ankle injury that is expected to keep him out the rest of the weekend.

"He’s special," fellow running back Mohamed Ibrahim said. "His first day out here he was doing amazing stuff. His footwork, his catching ability, the way he reads plays, he’s got great acceleration. The guy’s awesome. I can see why he was the 12th pick."

Gibbs did not practice Saturday because of what Lions assistant general manager Ray Agnew described as a minor injury.
