Lions' Malcolm Rodriguez: Likely out for start of season
Rodriguez (knee) is unlikely to be ready for the start of the season, Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com reports.
The linebacker was placed on injured reserve last November after tearing his ACL in a win over the Bears. Detroit coach Dan Campbell offered a conservative estimate Thursday that Rodriguez could return by November, per Woodyard. The 2022 sixth-round pick is entering the final season of his four-year rookie deal, and while he started 15 games as a rookie, he has played more often in a backup and rotational role since then.

Lions' Malcolm Rodriguez: Placed on injured reserve
The Lions placed Rodriguez (knee) on injured reserve Saturday.
As expected, Rodriguez will finish the 2024 season on injured reserve after he tore his ACL during the Lions' win over the Bears on Thursday. Ezekiel Turner, Kwon Alexander and Ben Niemann are all candidates to start at linebacker alongside Trevor Nowaske and Jack Campbell due to Rodriguez's injury.

Lions' Malcolm Rodriguez: Tears ACL, out for season
Rodriguez had an MRI that revealed a torn ACL in his knee, and his season is over, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Per Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com, Rodriguez will have surgery to repair the ACL when his swelling subsides. The third-year pro ends his season with 43 tackles (27 solo), including 2.0 sacks, and a defensed pass. Ezekiel Turner could move into a starting role in Rodriguez's stead, though that responsibility may go to Kwon Alexander, who Detroit signed off Denver's practice squad Friday.

Lions' Malcolm Rodriguez: Injures knee Thursday
Rodriguez suffered a knee injury during Sunday's game against the Bears.
Rodriguez remained down on the field in the fourth quarter while holding his right knee but was able to make it to the sideline under his own power. If he's unable to return, he'll finish Week 13 with five tackles and one pass defense.

Lions' Malcolm Rodriguez: Leads team in tackles
Rodriguez tallied eight tackles (seven solo) Sunday in Detroit's win over the Colts.
Rodriguez saw increased playing time Sunday with both Alex Anzalone (forearm) and Derrick Barnes (knee) on injured reserve, and he ended up having his most productive game of the campaign. Rodriguez's eight tackles not only led the team, but they also served as a new season high for the 25-year-old. He will likely continue to serve as the team's starting linebacker while Anzalone and Barnes remain sidelined.
