  "summary": "The Detroit Lions have placed offensive guard Ben Bartch, linebacker Devin White, and wide receiver and return man Tom Kennedy on injured reserve. Bartch, White, and Kennedy will be sidelined for at least four games before returning to the roster. Kennedy suffered an MCL injury requiring surgery after the Lions' win against the Arizona Cardinals, while White broke his forearm in the same game and is expected to return later in the season. Bartch had been inactive in Week 5 due to a foot injury but returned to action in the subsequent games. With these injuries, the Lions now have three roster spots open, allowing for potential returns of safety Brian Branch and center Cade Mays.",
