DETROIT -- Lions tight end Eric Ebron was carted off the field during the franchises mock game Saturday with what may be a right Achilles injury, according to the NFL Network.Ebron fell to the ground around the right hashmark and was clearly in pain as team doctors checked his right knee and ankle. He was down for several minutes before a cart came out to take him off the field and back toward the locker room.Early indications are that the injury may not be as serious as initially feared, according to reports from ESPNs Adam Caplan and The NFL Network.Lions coach Jim Caldwell had no comment on Ebrons injury after practice concluded. When asked about Ebrons injury, general manager Bob Quinn said, Injuries happen in football, but he didnt elaborate further.Quarterback Matthew Stafford said he has no idea what is wrong with Ebron. When asked what it would do to Detroits offense if he were significantly hurt, Stafford said Im not going to talk about hypotheticals.Ebron had been having a good training camp, looking much more comfortable catching the ball, and he was in the midst of a good day during the Lions mock game Saturday, including catching a 30-yard pass from Stafford down the seam.If Ebron were to miss any time, it would be devastating to a Detroit Lions tight end group already without Brandon Pettigrew, who remains on PUP recovering from a torn ACL. The Lions have veteran Matthew Mulligan and undrafted rookie Cole Wick as the next two tight ends.Orson Charles, who was signed earlier this summer, is a veteran who could see more time if Ebron were to be significantly injured.You never want to see somebody in your room go down, period, anybody in the organization, Charles said. Im definitely going to keep him in my prayers and go up there and check up on him. As a group, we all have to step up and try to fill that void.Ebron had said earlier this camp he felt this was a make it or break it year for him with the Lions. Quinn had previously said by the third season he typically knows what to expect out of a tight end.Ebron missed some reps after being shaken up during Wednesdays practice and sat out Fridays practice with an undisclosed injury.Clinton Portis Redskins Jersey .Y. -- Vancouver Canucks goaltender Roberto Luongo had little trouble picking up his first shutout of the season against a Buffalo Sabres team thats having trouble scoring goals.

Sammy Baugh Jersey . - Oakland Raiders running back Rashad Jennings was speaking to a group of local high school students earlier this week when the conversation turned to the importance of being prepared when opportunities in life arise.Ahead of the New York derby - live on Sky Sports - we assess how Patrick Vieira has done so far in charge of New York City FC.Vieira took the New York City FC job in January with the objective of leading the Major League Soccer franchise to their first ever play-offs after predecessor Jason Kreis had managed only an eighth-place finish in the clubs inaugural campaign.Ahead of Saturdays Rivalry Week clash with the New York Red Bulls, we take a look at how the former Arsenal midfielder has done so far... The off-seasonThe expectation levels at New York City FC are high; the club has financial backing from Manchester Citys holding company, City Football Group, as well as Yankee Global Enterprises, who own the iconic baseball club the New York Yankees.Vieiras brave decision to step into football management led him to New York City, and was selected by director of football Claudio Reyna. Like Vieira, Reyna spent playing time at Manchester City and he wanted to appoint the former elite development squads coach to lead the MLS club. What is MLS rivalry week? This week pits together the fiercest rivals in the league, meaning many high-profile matches... Vieira was announced as the new head coach on November 9 last year and took charge on January 1.Former Spain international and ex-Valencia, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid striker David Villa joined the club at the start of last season and was an immense success. David Villa has enjoyed himself in MLS following his move from La Liga He scored 18 goals in 29 MLS appearances in his first season. However, Andrea Pirlo and Frank Lampard both joined in the summer last year, and had less than successful starts to their respective careers stateside.Vieiras first job would be to successfully integrate the new stars into a workable system while also building a strong supporting cast around them. MLS top earners Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard are among the top earners but Kaka remains the highest-paid star His first signing was Englishman Jack Harrison as the first pick in the 2016 MLS Superdraft. Unfortunately for the 19-year-old from Bolton, injury has meant he is yet to make a first-team appearance for the club.In total, Vieira had helped to clear out 11 players from their squad and brought in 10 new players. With a predominantly new-look line-up, it would come down to how Vieira would fit the pieces together and whether he could engineer a team that would pick up results. Villa, Frank Lampard, and Andrea Pirlo are the teams star players The resultsAs it stands, New York City are currently top of the Eastern Conference standings on 17 points after 12 matches. City have won four, drawn five and lost three games under Vieira as they currently lead the way in the Eastern standings.Their season kicked off in a frantic fashion as they won 4-3 against Chicago Fire, another team currently undergoing transition. However, City went on a winless run of seven matches without a win, drawing four and losing three matches.The last draw of the seven-game run, a 1-1 result against Montreal Impact, seemed to mark a turning point as theey went on to win three games in a row with victories over Vancouver Whitecaps, D.ddddddddddddC. United and Portland Timbers before earning a hard-fought away point against Toronto FC on Wednesday. MLS highlights as New York City FC travelled to the BMO Field to face Toronto Results overall, then, have been positive, and intriguingly theyve been successful without one of their designated players in Lampard, who has been out with a calf injury.He reportedly could be set for a return on Saturday night but where he fits into the team tactically is up for debate. The midfield three now looks settled with Pirlo acting as the sole holding player, though Vieira showed his strength of leadership by deciding to drop the Italian playmaker for his poor performance on April 23. Pirlo did not hit top form at first and found himself dropped by Vieira What they say about himLampard, talking to Sky Sports before the beginning of the season, praised Vieira for mucking in.Fair play to him because people who have been great players dont always want to go and do the dirty work, he said.Hes worked with the kids on cold Manchester mornings at the back of the training ground. Ive seen them do it and hes certainly earned his stripes there. For us, I hope he ups our level. The players will respect him and when he speaks they will listen because of what hes done in the game.NYCFC captain Villa backed Vieira after their seven game winless run. Its mentality, its on us, Villa said. The coach says all the right things. We played very well and how the coach wants. I’m happy here, I have a great team and a great staff. Now all I have to do is win. Patrick Vieira What he saysAt the start of the season, Viera declared: Im happy here, I have a great team and a great staff. Now all I have to do is win.And after their winless streak was extended to seven games after the 1-1 draw v Montreal Impact, he backed his players to recover: We are in a period where everything is going against us, but we will stick together, we will fight together and we will turn it around. We showed that by the way we played tonight.On dropping Pirlo for the Philadelphia Union game on April 23, he said: Its my decision. Im just trying to choose the best team to win football matches, regarding the team were going to play against - on how we can hurt them and how we can defend their strengths.Also See:Who are the top earners in MLS?What exactly is MLS rivalry week?
