The Detroit Lions are gearing up for an NFC Title clash against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday. They’ve been putting some strange injury reports out in the meantime.

Following their listing of center Frank Ragnow as a go for Sunday despite ankle, knee, toe, and back injuries, Hendon Hooker’s made the list for a bizarre reason too.

 

The rookie quarterback spent most of the season on the injured reserve list rehabbing from an ACL tear sustained while still at Tennessee. He was activated last month but is back on the report with a tooth injury.

“Hendon Hooker makes the injury report… because he had a chipped tooth pulled. That’s a new one. (He’ll be fine.),” NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport pointed out.

As you might have imagined, the reactions to this were wild. Check some out below:


The Lions are getting good at this sort of thing.
