Brock Wright injury update: Latest on Lions TE for NFC Championship Game vs 49ers

The Detroit Lions are getting ready to play the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC Championship. Head coach Dan Campbell has an uphill battle because tight end Brock Wright is injured and his season is ended, despite the fact that the Lions are roaring and morale is strong.During the regular season, the 25-year-old had 13 catches for 91 yards and a touchdown. In the Divisional Round game played last weekend, Wright caught one pass for 29 yards.

During last Sunday’s Detroit Lions victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Brock Wright sustained a forearm injury. In the game’s second half, he took a blow on the arm. Over the fourth quarter, he did not return. The tight end was then shown with his arm in a sling, validating the Lions’ worst suspicions before to the NFC Championship game.

“Next week doesn’t seem to be looking very nice. On Wright’s injury last week, Campbell had stated, “But we’ll see.”

Wright has missed previous games for the Lions due to injury. Due to an abductor injury, the 25-year-old missed the final three regular season games. Two of those games were victories for Detroit, including one over the Minnesota Vikings 30–20.

After suffering a significant knee injury, he returned to the game and caught nine passes for 65 yards.Conversely, LaPorta is not back to full health and had to play with an injury when he did. In the practice report from Wednesday, the 23-year-old was marked as a nonparticipant.On Sunday, the NFC Championship game between the Detroit Lions and the San Francisco 49ers will take place. Wright won’t be able to attend the game even if they win and advance to the Super Bowl.
