Game News
RT: Chris Godwin wide open ? A 41-yard TD for the @buccaneers! ?: #TBvsDET on FOX ?: atnfl.co/watch pic.x.com/kxctakc9ud
Baker Mayfield says it was so big that a bunch of different players stepped up at the end, especially with a number of players out with injury.
Bucs RB Rachaad White is questionable to return due to a groin injury.
Tough break for the Lions. Clearly a PI, officials don't throw the flag as Jared Goff throws a pick intended for Jameson Williams after Christian Izien blocked his route
Bucs K Chase McLaughlin is now 26-31 on FG tries of 50-plus yards after booting a 55-yarder in Detroit. McLaughlin is the NFL's all-time leader in FG percentage from 50-plus yards.
The three Bucs who were listed as questionable have all been clearned to play: CB Zyon McCollum, DL Logan Hall and S Tykee Smith.
Buccaneers' Week Two inactives: TE Devin Culp T Luke Goedeke CB Josh Hayes DL Calijah Kancey OLB Jose Ramirez DL Ben Stille S Antoine Winfield Jr. buccaneers.com/news/bucs-lion...
The Buccaneers don't have right tackle Luke Goedeke, who is out with a concussion.
Aidan Hutchinson has 3 sacks today. There's 5 minutes left... in the FIRST QUARTER. pic.x.com/0gupokr37d
#Lions offense seems more dynamic when Sam LaPorta is more involved. Wonder if making Jameson Williams a larger part of the game plan has impacted LaPorta's targets.
Reports of Amon-Ra St. Brown's demise have been greatly exaggerated.
James Houston is active for the Lions today, Marcus Davenport is not. We'll see how much Houston plays.
RT: David Montgomery muscles it in to give the @Lions the lead! ? ?: #TBvsDET on FOX ?: atnfl.co/watch https://t.co/hQJjMsU6PO
The Detroit Lions won the battle of the stat sheet but lost the scoreboard war against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 2. Tampa Bay scored a 20-16 road win in Ford Field, avenging the NFC Divisional Round loss by the Lions last January.
Detroit suffered from poor red zone efficiency, untimely defensive lapses and an off day from a few key players, notably QB Jared Goff and offensive coordinator Ben Johnson.
Lions RT Penei Sewell, DT DJ Reader ACTIVE vs. Buccaneers. Here is who is inactive in week 2: trib.al/1IPz4Dm
I knew Lions K Jake Bates took a unique path to the NFL, never attempting a FG in college after starting as a soccer player, but I didn't realize how wild it was till we talked for this story. My Sunday long read: 'I just have so much gratitude' freep.com/story/sports/n... via @freep
Alex Anzalone being evaluated for a concussion for the Lions
Kindle Vildor out there.
@LionsPR: #Lions Injury Update:
CB Terrion Arnold, Finger, Questionable
Detroit Lions rookie CB Terrion Arnold did a Q&A with the Detroit Free Press and explained why he wears the number zero. trib.al/7jAnr13
