Lions All-Pro LB Jack Campbell Carted Off Field, Evaluated for Neck Injury at Hospital
Medical staff immobilized Campbell and loaded him onto a cart after the tackle, and the Lions still had no official update on his injury.
On Sunday, November 1, 2026, Detroit Lions All-Pro linebacker Jack Campbell was carted off the field on a backboard after sustaining a neck injury during the game against the Minnesota Vikings.
Campbell was injured while tackling Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson early in the fourth quarter, with medical staff immobilizing him on the field before transport to a local hospital.
The injury compounded a difficult day for Detroit, which already lost pass rusher DJ Wonnum and safety Brian Branch to concussions earlier in the contest, alongside teammate Jimmy Rolder's hamstring injury.
Defensive star Aidan Hutchinson appeared distraught and rallied teammates as the entire coaching staff and roster surrounded the cart supporting Campbell during his departure from the field.
With Campbell sidelined, Detroit must assess its linebacker depth and utilize alternatives including Derrick Barnes, Malcolm Rodriguez, and Trevor Nowaske to fill the void in the middle of the defense.
