Lions' Marcus Davenport (triceps) likely to miss rest of season

Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell announced Monday that defensive end Marcus Davenport is likely out for the remainder of the season due to an elbow injury he sustained in Sunday's win over the Arizona Cardinals.

The nature of the injury is a torn triceps, ESPN reported. Campbell added that the 28-year-old was looking into other options regarding the treatment of the injury.

The Lions signed Davenport via free agency in March to a one-year deal worth $7.095 million. He recorded a half-sack in Week 1 vs. the Rams, then sat out Week 2 due to a groin injury.

This is Davenport's seventh season in the league, having played his first five years with the New Orleans Saints and last year with the Minnesota Vikings. His most productive season was in 2021, when he finished with nine sacks, 39 tackles, three forced fumbles and a fumble recovery in 11 games.

Injuries have hindered Davenport throughout his career. After being selected with the 14th pick in the 2018 draft, he played in just 63 games in his five seasons in New Orleans and just four games last season in Minnesota.

His is one of many injuries that the Lions, who advanced to the NFC Championship Game last season, are dealing with.

Campbell said Monday linebacker Derrick Barnes will be out "a significant amount of time" with a knee injury he suffered Sunday. Meanwhile, three-time Pro Bowl center Frank Ragnow reportedly sustained a torn pectoral muscle Sunday and is considered week-to-week.

Tight end Sam LaPorta, who was named a Pro Bowler last year in his rookie season, was carted off with an ankle injury. The team is saying he's day-to-day with a low ankle sprain.

Safety Brian Branch, another player who emerged as a rookie last season, is also day-to-day with a concussion. Campbell said Branch is in the protocol but "was doing pretty good."
