With every NFL training camp comes the fear of a potential injury and Detroit Lions fans are now among those holding their breath.
Second-year running back Jahmyr Gibbs left the Lions' practice Monday afternoon with a leg injury according to the team. He went through position drills with both the running backs and wide receivers before exiting ahead of the team drills. ESPN reported he is being evaluated for a hamstring injury.
Gibbs was drafted by the Lions with the No. 12 pick in the 2023 NFL draft and made an instant impact in his rookie campaign.
Gibbs has had a history of hamstring injuries, even missing time last year in October because of the injury.
After a bit of a slow start, Gibbs found a rhythm towards the end of the year and finished the season with 945 yards rushing and 10 touchdowns on the ground. The versatile running back also added 316 yards and a touchdown through the air and spent a significant amount of time in training camp working with the receivers to try and take his pass catching to another level.

Terrion Arnold, Ennis Rakestraw Jr. also leave with injuries
The Lions spent their first two picks in the 2024 NFL draft addressing their biggest need: cornerback. The Lions drafted Terrion Arnold out of Alabama with their first pick and Ennis Rakestraw Jr. with their second pick.
At practice on Monday, both players had to leave with injuries.
Arnold left with an upper-body injury while Rakestraw was being looked at for an ankle injury according to the team. Rakestraw left at the beginning of team drills with a slight limp. Arnold left during one-on-one tackling drills following a rep against Amon-Ra St. Brown.
Both players made their on-field debut with the Lions in their preseason game against the New York Giants, with Arnold playing just a few snaps and Rakestraw playing a bit more, but still coming out early.
