D’Andre Swift and the Detroit Lions are looking for their first win of the season on Thanksgiving afternoon against the Chicago Bears.
But, during the second quarter of the game, with the Lions holding a 7-3 lead, Swift suffered a painful-looking shoulder injury.
As you can see below, Swift was in a lot of discomfort after being tackled along the sideline:

Really hoping it’s not a collarbone injury but seems possible from video as well as area trainers checked on sideline.
