Dan Campbell confirms ‘long-term’ injuries for John Cominsky and Netane Muti

The Detroit Lions suffered their first serious injuries of the summer during Tuesday’s practice session. Defensive lineman John Cominsky and offensive lineman Netane Muti each went down during the practice with injuries that required them to leave practice.

It’s not good news for either Muti or Cominsky, Lions head coach Dan Campbell confirmed.

“Both of them have injuries that will knock them out for a while,” Campbell said at the start of his press conference. “Both will need surgery.”

Cominsky suffered a torn knee ligament in his right leg, while Muti suffered a left shoulder injury.

When asked about injured reserve and the potential for Cominsky to return late in the year, Campbell didn’t rule it out, stating that he and GM Brad Holmes have discussed it but not made any decisions yet.
