NEW ORLEANS -- Hi there. Just popping over from our NFL Countdown Live chat to let you know that Detroit Lions cornerback Chris Houston has left this wild-card playoff game because of a first-quarter shoulder injury. Houston, who led the Lions with five interceptions this season, is questionable to return. He's been replaced by nickel back Aaron Berry. The Lions and New Orleans Saints are tied at 7-all early in the second quarter. OK, now back to our chat. *Update: Houston missed one series but has returned.
