Quintez Cephus leaves the Lions game vs. Vikings with shoulder injury

Cephus is questionable to return with a shoulder injury

Detroit Lions wide receiver Quintez Cephus headed to the locker room early before halftime. Cephus was in obvious distress after being tackled on the sideline on the Lions final drive of the first half.

Cephus injured his shoulder on the play, a great third-down catch-and-run where he juked veteran CB Patrick Peterson with a great move before getting bowled over at the sideline. After remaining down on the Lions sideline, Cephus was walked to the training room.

The team officially ruled Cephus’ return as questionable with the shoulder injury. He had three receptions on as many targets for 38 yards in the first half, all of which led the Lions.
