Amon-Ra St. Brown out with ankle injury after leaving Thanksgiving game vs. Packers
NY Post
Amon-Ra St. Brown went down and was removed from Thursday’s game between the Lions and Packers.
St. Brown was rolled up on from behind by offensive lineman Kayode Awosika on a Jahmyr Gibbs rushing attempt with 6:19 remaining in the first quarter, and the Packers leading 3-0.
St. Brown was clearly in pain, and multiple team doctors came to look at their coveted receiver. After initially being ruled as questionable to return, St. Brown was ruled out at the start of the second half.
It is unclear what St. Brown’s injury is although the nature of the roll up from behind could point to an ankle sprain.
The stud Lions receiver had not been targeted in the pass game prior to the injury.
Through the first half, the Lions really struggled through the air, as quarterback Jared Goff missed his security blanket, as St. Brown was not on the sideline with the team, presumably getting treatment from team doctors.

PORT ST. LUCIE — From the moment he was told he needed surgery on his left hamate bone, Francisco Lindor fixated on the recovery time. Trainers provided the Mets shortstop a six-week pathway to return to play, and Lindor was determined to hit every marker.
Dylan Garand knew the number off the top of his head. He knew that, between the regular season and playoffs, he’d logged over 160 games with AHL Hartford, and he was right. Before the Rangers recalled him Friday, Garand had served as the Wolf Pack’s goaltender 165 times.
