It looked bad at first.

Detroit Lions rookie tight end T.J. Hockenson grabbed his helmet with both hands immediately after he took a big hit in the upper back from safety Erik Harris on an incomplete pass late in the fourth quarter of Sunday's 31-24 loss to the Oakland Raiders.

But a day later, Hockenson appears to have avoided significant injury.
