Detroit Lions cornerback Amik Robertson appeared to suffer a gruesome snapped arm during the first quarter of Saturday night’s outing against the Washington Commanders.

It’s been end-to-end stuff at Ford Field, with the teams trading touchdowns, though the Commanders had a cushion of a lead – 31-21 – heading into halftime at the time of writing.

Robertson’s night is over, however, with the breakout defensive player coming off worse for wear after a hefty collision with teammate Jack Campbell. The linebacker slammed into his cohort during a tackle, sending him to the ground in pain.

Robertson’s left arm appeared to be broken as he lay on the field.

Amik Robertson Needed Trainers To Hold His Arm Up On The Way To The Locker Room

The Lions announced that Robertson was questionable to return after he left for the locker room. But it was clear that his night was done as he could not let his arm hang naturally.

Trainers had to hold it up while he made his way off.

Meanwhile, Detroit needs all the help they can get on defense as Jayden Daniels and the Commanders are not having as tough a time as expected.
