Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs will be “fine” after leaving practice with a hamstring injury this week, Detroit coach Dan Campbell said Wednesday.
“I think we’re gonna be fine here,” Campbell told 97.1 The Ticket in Detroit. “So, I think we’ll be good.”
Gibbs, 22, made the Pro Bowl as a 2023 rookie with 1,261 yards from scrimmage. He left Monday’s practice after sustaining the injury.
Gibbs was the 12th overall pick of the 2023 NFL Draft out of Alabama. He rushed 182 times for 945 yards and 10 touchdowns while catching 52 passes for 316 yards and another score in 15 games (three starts) last year.
The Lions play their second preseason game Saturday at Kansas City, and open the regular season on Sept. 8 at home against the Los Angeles Rams on “Sunday Night Football.”
