Dan Campbell uncertain about Kerby Joseph’s readiness for Lions opener

Lions coach Dan Campbell stated he is unsure about the availability and performance of safety Kerby Joseph for the upcoming season. Joseph is dealing with a degenerative knee condition and missed 11 games last season. The Lions signed veterans Christian Izien and Chuck Clark to bolster their secondary, as both Joseph and Brian Branch are recovering from injuries. Joseph has been participating in practice but his exact status will be evaluated later this summer during training camp. Campbell emphasized the team's cautious approach while managing Joseph's injury.
