Fans reacted to the shot on social media.
“Yep Lions got it covered. Kerby, Branch , and Arnold you guys got this,” one fan wrote on Twitter.
“he might be regretting saying that on Sunday,” another fan added.
“They give up like 35 points/ game lol,” one fan added.
“Does anyone else watch Terrion Arnold and think there’s no way a legitimate NFL GM thought this guy was a first round talent? The dude is bad,” one person wrote.
It’ll be interesting to see if Arnold and the defense can live up to his words.
