The Detroit Lions defeated the Minnesota Vikings in Week 8. But that’s a bit of an afterthought with star Lions linebacker Jack Campbell in the hospital.
The Lions provided an update on Campbell’s status on social media Sunday night.
“Jack Campbell is resting and will remain in a local hospital tonight, for continued evaluation and monitoring,” wrote the team’s official X account. “The team will provide further updates as we have them.”
Campbell suffered a serious neck injury early in the fourth quarter against the Vikings on Sunday. The linebacker left on a cart and went to a Detroit hospital.
Detroitlions.com’s Tim Twentyman referred to the injury as “a pretty scary situation” right after it occurred.
“Cart immediately came out for him,” wrote Twentyman on X. “Lots of medical personnel around him as they are putting him on a stretcher.”
