DETROIT (AP) — St. Louis wide receiver Mark Clayton has left Sunday’s game against Detroit in the first quarter with an apparent right leg injury.
Clayton fell to the ground while running a deep pass pattern along the left sideline and stayed down until he was carted off the field. He had caught a pass for 6 yards earlier in the game.
Clayton entered the game tied for fourth in the NFC with 22 receptions. His injury puts more pressure on Danny Amendola as rookie quarterback Sam Bradford’s top remaining target.
