The Detroit Lions continued their magical season on Sunday with a last-minute win against the Chargers. The team improved to 7-2 on the year and 4-1 on the road. Winning in the NFL is one thing but winning on the road is something only special teams often do.
What makes this team special, beyond the road record, is the way they get the most out of their rookie class.
The 2023 Detroit Lions rookie class is arguably the best for what it has done for their team. Other teams found key pieces of course but for a team that was on the up, they hit the mark perfectly.
Several rookies made important impacts on Sunday’s game, no one more than Jahmyr Gibbs who we highlight first.
