Kirby Fabien likely done for the season with three torn knee ligaments

Trainer Bill Reichelt said Fabien had torn three knee ligaments and held out very little hope the 21-year-old will continue his rookie season. It was clear that the first-half injury, suffered when Fabien was belted after Travis Lulay threw an interception, left the Lions in an emotional hole.

"Sickening, just sickening. It was like a mental flash," defensive back Ryan Phillips said, recalling the Franks injury. "(Fabien) has such a big future. He was just maturing. For it to happen to him this early in the season, it sucks."

"I try to participate in meetings just so that complacency doesn’t creep in. You have to. You can’t just put your feet up," Valli said. "I can’t even put into words what I’m feeling for that kid now. It happened to me last year and it almost ended my career. At least he’s 21 years old."
