Lions' Jameson Williams: Paces team in receiving yards
Williams caught five of eight targets for 80 yards in Thursday's 34-31 win over the Packers.
Williams led the team in receiving yards on a team-high eight targets, most notably reeling in a 28-yard catch in the first quarter. The wide receiver's dynamic skill set has led to some big performances this season, and the five catches matched his season high, which he now has accomplished in three straight games and five times overall in 2024. On the year, Williams has caught 39 of 63 targets for 710 yards and four touchdowns while appearing in 11 games.

Lions' Sam LaPorta: Second-leading pass catcher in win
LaPorta brought in five of seven targets for 54 yards in the Lions' 34-31 win over the Packers on Thursday night.
LaPorta tied multiple teammates for second in receptions and finished as the runner-up in receiving yards to Jameson Williams on the night. The talented tight end also matched Tim Patrick for second in targets during what was one of LaPorta's busiest games yet this season. The catch total was LaPorta's second highest of 2024, and the targets qualified as a new season high, sending him into a Week 15 home showdown against the Bills on Sunday, Dec. 15 with plenty of momentum.

Lions' Tim Patrick: Two touchdowns in win
Patrick caught six of seven targets for 43 yards and two touchdowns in Thursday's 34-31 win over the Packers.
Patrick was finally able to reach the end zone for the first time since the 2021 season, scoring on a three-yard catch in the third quarter and a one-yard snag in the fourth quarter. The 31-year-old has carved out a solid role for himself as the undisputed No. 3 option behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams at wide receiver, catching 15 of 18 targets for 172 yards and two scores the last four games. On the season, Patrick has 27 receptions for 349 yards and two touchdowns in 12 contests with Detroit.

Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Held in check by Packers
St. Brown brought in five of six targets for 43 yards and rushed once for 10 yards in the Lions' 34-31 win over the Packers on Thursday night.
As had been the case in four of his previous five meetings with the Packers, St. Brown was held to under 57 receiving yards while furnishing his fourth-lowest yardage total of the campaign. However, he saved his most valuable contribution for his final catch, as he brought in a 16-yard dart from Jared Goff over the middle on second-and-17 with 1:42 remaining. Despite the modest numbers Thursday, St. Brown should be heavily involved in a Week 15 home matchup against the Bills on Sunday, Dec. 15 that could serve as a Super Bowl preview.

Lions' Jahmyr Gibbs: Scores receiving TD in win
Gibbs rushed 15 times for 43 yards and secured all six targets for 30 yards and a touchdown in the Lions' 34-31 win over the Packers on Thursday night.
Gibbs and backfield mate David Montgomery struggled to find consistent running room, and 20 of Gibbs' rushing yards actually came on one carry. However, the second-year back tied Tim Patrick for the lead in receptions and recorded his second receiving touchdown of the season on a two-yard catch just before halftime. Gibbs now has four total touchdowns (three rushing, one receiving) over the last four games heading into a Week 15 home clash against the Bills on Sunday, Dec. 15.

Lions' David Montgomery: Another TD in division win
Montgomery rushed 14 times for 51 yards and a touchdown and brought in all five targets for 33 yards in the Lions' 34-31 win over the Packers on Thursday night.
Montgomery capped off the opening possession of the game with a three-yard walk-in rushing touchdown, his fifth in the last five games. The veteran back generally found running room at a premium, but he set a new season high in receptions and targets. Montgomery has consistently complemented his work on the ground with solid production through the air of late, as he'll head into a Week 15 home showdown against the Bills on Sunday, Dec. 15 with a 14-143-0 line on 14 targets in the last four contests.

Lions' Jared Goff: Stellar showing in big win
Goff completed 32 of 41 passes for 283 yards with three touchdowns and one interception in the Lions' 34-31 win over the Packers on Thursday night. He also rushed four times for seven yards.
Goff got the Lions off and running with a crisp 11-play, 70-yard march that culminated in a David Montgomery three-yard walk-in rushing touchdown on the first possession of the contest. The veteran signal-caller would go on to struggle some during the rest of the first half, although he did get Detroit back in the end zone before halftime with a two-yard scoring toss to Jahmyr Gibbs. Goff would throw his one interception on a slant during Detroit's first drive of the second half, a pick that led to a Packers touchdown. Nevertheless, he would redeem himself with three- and one-yard scoring tosses to Tim Patrick, while recording a pair of clutch completions during the game-winning drive late in the fourth quarter. Goff's interception broke a three-game streak without a pick, but he still boasts a 9:1 TD:INT over his last four contests heading into a Week 15 home showdown against Josh Allen and the Bills on Sunday, Dec. 15.
