But, the Lions are already prepping to go up against a fantastic team in the Baltimore Ravens on Monday, September 23. It should make for an exciting Monday Night Football display.<\/p>\n<p>The Detroit Lions and the Baltimore Ravens both have a 1-1 record heading into the game, with the Ravens falling to the Bills in their first week of the regular season and the Lions losing to the Green Bay Packers in their opening week. But, a lot of predictions have the Ravens winning this one by a lot.<\/p>\n<p>Knowing that the Lions are the underdog on Monday isn\u2019t great, but the Lions are used to being the underdogs, so it\u2019s familiar territory. Also, heading into the game, it appears the Ravens will be without one of their star players, which should benefit the Lions.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Baltimore Ravens Get Injury News Ahead of Detroit Lions Game<\/h2>\n<p>The Ravens dropped some injury news on Monday. According to Jeremy Fowler of\u00a0ESPN, Ravens pass rusher Kyle Van Noy could miss multiple games because of a hamstring injury that he suffered during the team\u2019s Week 2 win over the Cleveland Browns.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRavens Pro Bowl edge rusher Kyle Van Noy is bracing to potentially miss multiple games due to a hamstring injury suffered Sunday, per source. Van Noy, who led the team in sacks (12.5) last year, is hoping the injury is short-term,\u201d Fowler reported.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith Van Noy unlikely to suit up in Week 3, the Ravens will be without the services of their top pass rusher off the edge,\u201d Michael Bohlin of Detroit Jock City notes. \u201cAfter recording 12.5 sacks during the 2024 season, which knocked the opposing offense back a total of 84 yards, Baltimore\u2019s ability to get after the quarterback on defense will suffer a serious blow without Van Noy in the lineup against Detroit\u2019s high-powered offense.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>So, while it\u2019s never great to hear about any player being injured, the news should, in theory, benefit Detroit. Going up against Lamar Jackson is not going to be easy, so anything helps.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Meanwhile, Detroit Lions Are Waiting on an Injury Report<\/h2>\n<p>Lions coach Dan Campbell met with the media on Monday, September 15, in Allen Park, Michigan, and talked about the team\u2019s injury situation. During the Bears game, defensive end Marcus Davenport left the field with a shoulder injury in the third quarter. Davenport also missed some time in the first half with an ankle issue.<\/p>\n<p>During the presser, Campbell confirmed that Davenport was getting some testing done and that he wasn\u2019t sure if he\u2019d be back in time for the Ravens. Losing a star defensive end would be a huge loss to the Lions, so let\u2019s hope that isn\u2019t what happens.<\/p>\n<p>In better news, Campbell gave an update on defensive end Aidan Hutchinson, who appeared injured in the second half after a collision. He said Hutch as \u201ca little sore but he\u2019s alright.\u201d The team definitely has to keep Hutchinson healthy this season.<\/p>\n<p>Anne Erickson is an award-winning reporter for Heavy Sports covering the NFL, NBA and college football.
