Detroit Lions FB Jason Cabinda (ankle) could open regular season on PUP list The Lions waived 3 players Monday: TE Nolan Givan, C Ryan McCollum and TE Garrett Griffin

AUGUST 15, 2022 • FREEP.COM

Nursing ankle injury Cabinda's placement on the PUP list Wednesday was due to an ankle injury, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

Impact The nature of Cabinda's ankle injury is not clear, nor is it clear how much of training camp he will need to miss in his recovery. Whether or not Detroit adds any depth at the position could be telling as to whether it expects the fullback to miss an extended period of time.

Hits PUP list Cabinda (undisclosed) was added to the Lions' active/physically unable to perform list Wednesday, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Impact Cabinda is eligible to return and play at any point this preseason, though it's unclear how long his stay on the PUP list may last. The fullback collected seven total touches for 39 yards and one score in 2021, and he figures to continue contributing both on offense and special teams this coming season.

Lands contract extension Cabinda signed a two-year contract extension with the Lions on Thursday.

Impact Cabinda missed the final two games of the regular season in 2021 due to a knee injury, but it's unlikely that the issue will impact his offseason availability. He rushed three times for 23 yards while securing four of seven targets for 16 yards and a touchdown across 14 appearances last year and should continue to serve as Detroit's primary fullback in 2022.

Logs first career TD in 2021 Cabinda (knee) appeared in 14 games in 2021 and rushed three times for 23 yards while catching four of seven targets for 16 yards and one touchdown.

Impact Cabinda was inactive for Week 18 after failing to practice all week due to a knee injury. It was nonetheless a successful season for the converted linebacker in his second full season at fullback, though, especially since Cabinda also handled some responsibilities at tight end thanks to the Lions' turmoil at that position. He'll now head into the offseason as a restricted free agent who will need to recover from a knee injury that wasn't serious enough for Detroit to immediately rule him out for the regular-season finale.

Out for Week 17 Cabinda (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.

Impact Cabinda will miss Sunday's matchup with Seattle after suffering the knee injury last week against the Falcons. The Lions will be without a fullback for Week 17.

Ruled out Sunday Cabinda (knee) won't return to Sunday's game against the Falcons, Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Cabinda hurt his knee after catching a pass in the first quarter, and he won't be able to return to the contest. He finishes Sunday with two catches on two targets for six yards.

Suffers knee injury Sunday Cabinda (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Falcons, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Impact Cabinda suffered the injury after catching a two-yard pass from Tim Boyle. If he's unable to return, then the Lions won't have a healthy fullback on their active roster, so they may opt to run more two-man sets with Brock Wright and Shane Zylstra.

Totals 21 rushing yards Cabinda rushed twice for 21 yards but failed to secure his only target during Sunday's 13-10 loss to the Browns.

Impact The fullback has now gotten a touch in two consecutive games, but this rushing production could easily end up as his season high.

Full practice Wednesday Cabinda (hip) was a full participant at Wednesday's practice.

Impact After missing the Lions' Week 7 matchup against the Rams, the fullback appears to be on track to play Sunday against the Eagles. In six games this season, he has yet to log a rush and has caught one ball for four yards, logging most of his snaps on special teams.

Sidelined by hip issue Cabinda (hip) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Rams.

Impact Cabinda was able to log two limited practices leading up to the Week 7 matchup, but that wasn't enough for him to be ready. He has served primarily in a special teams role, recording only one reception across six games.
