Terrion Arnold: Trying to stay positive, return as fast as possible
Lions cornerback Terrion Arnold “wanted to cry” when he heard the initial diagnosis of his shoulder injury, but better news came once he sought out further opinions.
After a report this week that Arnold could miss the rest of the regular season because of the injury, word came that Arnold was told that he’ll have to miss some time but that he should be able to return before the year is out. On Wednesday, Arnold said that his focus is on making that happen sooner rather than later.
“Right now, I’m just trying to stay as positive as possible,” Arnold said, via Benjamin Raven of MLive.com. I feel like with those different opinions and having different people look at it, like my second opinion went very, very well. Like I said, just trying to stay positive on it. . . . I don’t know how many weeks. My body heals fast. But just trying to get on the field with my teammates as fast as possible.”
With Arnold out indefinitely and both D.J. Reed and Khalil Dorsey on injured reserve, the Lions will be stretched thin at corner for the near future. That could lead to the defense taking some lumps, but the prospect of getting healthy in time for the stretch run should keep things from getting too bleak for Detroit.

A Leader On and Off the Field
While Miller’s impact is felt on the field, his leadership extends far beyond football. Young players like Montez Sweat and Daron Payne have openly credited Miller with helping them grow as players, learning from his wisdom and experience. Miller has brought a culture of accountability, focus, and preparation to Washington, setting the standard for what it takes to succeed in the NFL.
His leadership and professionalism are also evident off the field. Miller has actively engaged with the Washington community, participating in youth clinics, charity events, and mentorship programs. His influence has become a blueprint for young players on how to sustain excellence in a demanding league.
A Calculated Gamble That Paid Off
When the signing was first announced, many questioned the decision. Why invest $6.1 million in a 36-year-old pass rusher? But now, just five games into the season, it’s clear that Adam Peters' gamble was calculated — and it’s paying off in a big way.
Miller’s resurgence has made the Commanders defense a dominant force, propelling them to playoff contention and reshaping their identity. His ability to disrupt opposing offenses, combined with his leadership in the locker room, has been a game-changer for the team.
