Lions placed S Ko Simpson (knee) on injured reserve, ending his season.
The team never revealed the extent of Simpson's injury, but coach Jim Schwartz strongly indicated that it was severe. Simpson is set for restricted free agency this offseason. While he's flashed playmaking skill when healthy, Simpson's injury-proneness may discourage Detroit from retaining him.

Lions SS Ko Simpson (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Packers.
He will likely be replaced by Marvin White and it's a huge downgrade for the Lions already wretched secondary. Simpson could end up joining Marquand Manuel (shoulder) on injured reserve. The Lions are ranked dead last in the NFL in pass defense, setting up a dream matchup for Aaron Rodgers.

Lions SS Ko Simpson was forced to leave Sunday's win over the Browns with a knee injury and did not return.
Simpson is in danger of missing Thursday's game against the Packers. He was already filling in for Marquand Manuel (injured reserve, shoulder), leaving seldom used Marvin White as a first-teamer. Aaron Rodgers should have a field day against this secondary on Thanksgiving.

Ko Simpson will likely take over as the Lions' starting strong safety for the rest of the season.
The team lost Marquand Manuel to I.R.; Simpson is next on the depth chart. Simpson beat Manuel out earlier in the year, but lost the job when he got hurt. Give Simpson a look in deep IDP leagues behind Detroit's leaky front seven, though FS Louis Delmas remains their most productive defensive back.

Ko Simpson is "prepared to start" according to coach Jim Schwartz.
Simpson saw his first significant action last week against Washington. He will likely start opposite rookie Louis Delmas, as the Lions could use some help on defense defending the pass. Detroit ranks 30th in the league in pass defense and will have a tough matchup in Jay Cutler on Sunday.

Lions acquired S Ko Simpson from the Bills in exchange for an undisclosed 2010 draft pick.
The deal is pending a physical, which Simpson should pass. Simpson was being phased out in Buffalo, but he fills a major need for the Lions if they plan to play him at strong safety. He should start opposite rookie Louis Delmas once he gets his feet wet.
