Lions may start season without top safeties

Coach Dan Campbell said Joseph's return for Week One would be a bonus, but doesn't expect it. Branch might participate at some point during training camp, possibly late in camp or early September.

Both players suffered significant injuries last season - Joseph with a knee injury and Branch with a torn Achilles tendon. The Lions' defense has been riddled with injuries the last two years, and they're hoping for better health this season. trojkonferencja2024.pl
