Detroit Lions defensive end Marcus Davenport (92) pressures Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford (9) during the first half at Ford Field in Detroit on Sunday, September 8, 2024.

Detroit Lions defensive end Marcus Davenport's elbow injury could be season-ending, NFL Network reported Monday.

He is undergoing more tests for a "serious and significant" injury sustained during Sunday's 20-13 win at Arizona, per the report.

Davenport has recorded four quarterback hits, two tackles and a half-sack in two games (one start) this season. He missed Week 2 with a groin injury.

Davenport, 28, was a first-round pick (14th overall) by the New Orleans Saints in 2018. He signed a one-year deal with Detroit for $6.5 million in March.

He has 24 sacks, 68 QB hits and 151 tackles in 69 games (36 starts) with the Saints (2018-22), Minnesota Vikings (2023) and Lions.
