Kearse was injured on Thursday during the Lions preseason game versus the Patriots while he was blocking on a run play for Ty Johnson The 29-year-old immediately went down with a gruesome leg injury that trainers quickly covered with a towel. Kearse had his leg immobilized in an air cast and was carted off the field. ESPN later reported that Kearse had suffered a broken leg and injury to his ankle.
The Super Bowl XLVIII champion was signed by the Seahawks as an undrafted rookie in 2012. He would go on to spend five years with the team before signing with the Jets in 2017. He would spend two years in New York before signing with Detroit this offseason.
The loss of Kearse leaves wide receivers Andy Jones and Chris Lacy competing for back up spots behind Marvin Jones Jr., Kenny Golloday and Danny Amendola.
