Lions receiver Quintez Cephus breaks collarbone; season could be over

Allen Park — In what feels like has become an unfortunate weekly occurrence, the Detroit Lions' worst fears with an injured player have been confirmed. On Monday, coach Dan Campbell acknowledged wide receiver Quintez Cephus has suffered a broken collarbone.

That injury likely will land Cephus on injured reserve and potentially end his season.

A fifth-round pick of Wisconsin a year ago, Cephus was on track to obliterate his rookie season production. Stepping into a bigger role after starter Tyrell Williams suffered a concussion in the team's Week 1 loss to San Francisco, Cephus had 15 catches for 204 yards and two touchdowns through five games.
