CBS DETROIT - On Monday, Detroit Lions tight end Joseph Fauria explained the household accident that led to the sprained ankle that sidelined him last week. Essentially, Fauria's misstep came as a result of mischief on the part of his puppy.

Fauria's puppy has its own Instagram page, full of rather adorable photos and videos.

Fauria is in his second season with Detroit. In his absence Sunday, the Lions just went with two tight ends in Brandon Pettigrew and Eric Ebron.
