Terrion Arnold injury update: Lions get unexpectedly great news after 2nd opinion

The Detroit Lions might have dodged a bullet with cornerback Terrion Arnold.

Arnold suffered a shoulder injury in the Week 5 game against the Cincinnati Bengals and head coach Dan Campbell admitted he would miss a significant amount of time. Campbell wouldn't rule out Arnold missing the rest of the season, either.

However, after getting a second opinion, Arnold's injury may not be as bad as it was initially feared, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter, who notes that Arnold could be back as soon as this month.

"A second opinion on Lions CB Terrion Arnold’s shoulder today revealed the injury is not as bad as feared and he now is expected to return, as one source described, 'sooner than expected,' quite possibly this month," Schefter reported.
