| 0:00.0 | Hello everyone and welcome to another episode of the Detroit Lions Breakdown podcast. |
| 0:05.2 | I'm Joe Kanya. |
| 0:06.1 | With me as always is Eric Schlett from USA Today, Lions Wire. |
| 0:10.5 | And together, we make up the official Lions Wire Detroit Lions podcast. |
| 0:16.6 | We talk about all things Lions. |
| 0:17.9 | So that means we have to talk about the 4817 drubbing to the Jets on Monday night. |
| 0:23.6 | But before we get to that, we're going to start with the injury news. |
| 0:27.2 | And number one, I'm back on the board. |

| 1:24.0 | Yesterday it was reported he had an MRI on his shoulder. |
| 1:27.2 | It revealed that he didn't have any significant damage uh so i thought that was a positive step in the right direction yeah and obviously it is but i don't know if he's not ready for this week that could be a problem for him what does grant cooks say about all this yeah Yeah, our buddy Grant had a nice suggestion. |
