Lions put CB Ennis Rakestraw Jr. (shoulder) on IR

After Detroit Lions cornerback Ennis Rakestraw Jr. exited Monday’s practice with a shoulder injury, coach Dan Campbell warned that the second-year player could be out a while “at best.”Indeed that is the case, as the Lions placed Rakestraw on injured reserve after he underwent shoulder surgery on Thursday. As a result, the 2024 second-round pick out of Missouri will miss the entire 2025 season.Prior to his procedure, Rakestraw posted a picture of himself in a hospital gown to his Instagram story with the caption, “Road to Be back starts soon.”
