The Detroit Lions have another concern in the backfield.


RB Isiah Pacheco is now dealing with a back injury in addition to the MCL sprain that has kept him sidelined during training camp.


The good news? Dan Campbell says Pacheco's knee is no longer a concern. The bad news? His status for Week 1 against the New Orleans Saints is now unclear.


"I can't give you anything definitive," Campbell said Thursday.


Pacheco was originally expected to be ready for the season opener. Detroit recently brought in veteran RB Kareem Hunt for a visit, adding another layer to the situation.


With the season opener less than three weeks away, this is definitely something to watch.
