Lions star WR Calvin Johnson was forced from the field after he suffered an injury to his leg in the first quarter against Pittsburgh. Johnson has been able to walk along the sidelines, but his return is questionable for now.

This is a big blow to the Lions offense, at least in this game that is, as the Steelers are tough enough to beat when you have all of your stars playing. Hopefully he’ll be able to come back by next week at the least, but if not, the Lions could be in big trouble this season.
