Lions rookie Rogers injured; out for six weeks

Rookie wide receiver Charles Rogers, the Lions' leading receiver after the first five games of the season, suffered a broken collar bone Tuesday and is expected to miss 4-6 games.

Rogers was injured during the first day of practice in the bye week, when coach Steve Mariucci was hoping some of his players would have a chance to get healthy.

The incident occurred when Rogers and cornerback Dre' Bly became entangled in a spirited one-on-one drill early in the 90-minute practice session. Rogers ran a sideline route on a pass thrown by backup quarterback Mike McMahon. Rogers went down and Bly came down on top of him.

Rogers was on his hands and knees on the field for several minutes, then walked to the locker room with trainer Al Bellamy, who diagnosed the injury and sent Rogers to Henry Ford Hospital for treatment.

Guys are dropping like flies. Who's next??? RWms? Priest? LT? Manning? Tons of injuries this year. That's the game boys. That's why we have roster depth.
