Arnold (hamstring) was forced to exit practice early Tuesday, Colton Pouncy of The Athletic reports.
After straining his calf last week, Arnold suffered a second soft-tissue injury during a drill Tuesday. The 2024 first-round pick started 15 regular-season games last year and is in line to start this season alongside new free agent acquisition D.J. Reed, but the team is still woefully low on proven cornerback depth. This injury is a scary sight for a Detroit team that struggled to stay healthy on defense for the majority of last season.

Lions' Terrion Arnold: Misses practice due to illness
Rotowire
Arnold (illness) was a non-participant in Thursday's practice.
The fact that Arnold was afflicted with the illness early in the week likely gives him a better chance of suiting up Monday against San Francisco than if he had fallen ill closer to kickoff. Nonetheless, it's worth monitoring his practice status Friday and Saturday to get a better idea about his likelihood of being able to suit up against the 49ers. If Arnold can't play Monday, Kindle Vildor could be in line for a significant amount of defensive snaps.
