Detroit Lions receiver and return specialist Kalif Raymond is headed to injured reserve with a foot injury, NFL Network reported Wednesday.
Raymond, 30, was carted off the field after returning a punt in the third quarter of Sunday’s 24-6 victory over the Colts in Indianapolis.
Raymond will miss the Thanksgiving game against the visiting Chicago Bears and at least three more games if he lands on IR, making him eligible to return in Week 17 at San Francisco.
Through 11 games (two starts) this season, Raymond has 16 receptions for 204 yards and two touchdowns. He leads the NFL in punt returns (27) and yards (390), including a 90-yard touchdown against the Tennessee Titans in Week 8.
Undrafted out of Holy Cross in 2016, Raymond has played in 96 career games with the Denver Broncos (2016), New York Jets (2017), New York Giants (2017), Titans (2019-20) and Lions. He has 5,245 all-purpose yards and 10 touchdowns.
The only other player who has returned any punts this season for Detroit is star receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown with two for 15 yards.
