Late in the Detroit Lions victory over the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 8, long snapper Scott Daly was forced from the game with a knee injury following a field goal attempt. Tuesday afternoon, coach Dan Campbell updated his status while speaking to the media and noted that the injury would require surgery meaning he is likely headed to injured reserve.

“He’s going to need surgery,” Campbell said. “It’s a tough one to lose. I’m glad you brought him up because he’s been—nobody really talks about Daly. And you don’t talk about the long snapper unless something bad happens, and we hadn’t talked about Daly since Mule was gone.
