Lions' Golden Tate (shoulder) seen sporting a sling

Detroit Lions wide receiver Golden Tate was seen with a sling on his right arm Saturday, according to Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press.

What It Means:

This report confirms an earlier report that Tate would be sidelined for multiple weeks while dealing with a sprained AC joint. That means that the wideout will likely sit as the Lions emerge from the Week 7 bye next week. Kenny Golladay (hamstring) would probably start opposite Marvin Jones.

Our models project Tate for 52.0 catches, 565.5 yards and 3.65 touchdowns on 75.7 targets the rest of the year.
