Key Points:
- The Detroit Lions have faced challenges in their secondary early in the season due to the absence of safeties Brian Branch and Kerby Joseph.
- Head coach Dan Campbell indicated that Branch, recovering from a torn Achilles, is likely closer to returning than Joseph, who continues to deal with knee issues.
- Campbell expressed uncertainty about Joseph's return this season, emphasizing a cautious and patient approach to his recovery.
- The team also lost safety Avonte Maddox in Week 2 and added veteran Jalen Mills to the practice squad to address depth concerns.
- Without a significant change in Joseph's status, the Lions may continue seeking additional defensive back support throughout the season.
