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.
