Bye weeks for NFL teams are a time for players to relax, recharge their batteries and heal the injuries that they have been dealing with. While many key players such as defensive tackle Mike Daniels, tight end T.J. Hockenson and defensive end Da’Shawn Hand are all not at 100 percent, the injury that Detroit Lions fans should be the most concerned about is that of cornerback Darius Slay.
The two-time Pro Bowl Lions corner exited in the second half of the Week 3 win against the Philadelphia Eagles and sat out of the Week 4 loss against the Kansas City Chiefs.
