The Lions' latest loss- Pettigrew


,champions league shirts
The injuries keep piling up for Detroit,Portugal Euro 2012 shirts, which announced Friday it has lost rookie tight end Brandon Pettigrew for the year because of a knee injury.PettigrewPettigrew will become the 14th Lions player to go on injured reserve this season,euro shirt, the highest mark in the NFL. This loss might be the most crushing considering the progress Pettigrew had made in the past four weeks as the second of the Lions’ two first-round picks.Pettigrew caught 15 of his 30 passes in the three games preceding Thursday’s matchup with Green Bay and had proved to be a play-making threat at the tight end position. His blocking is more difficult to judge from the outside, but by most accounts he was holding his own in that area.I’m guessing the Lions will take a close look at why they’ve had so many injuries this season, but I don’t know if Pettigrew’s will help them draw any conclusions. It looked like his knee buckled without contact during the Lions’ first drive Thursday.
