The Detroit Lions are still leading the race for the No. 1 overall pick in the 2022 NFL draft, but they finally have their first victory of the 2022 season, even if it took until the last play of Sunday’s home matchup with the Minnesota Vikings.
Lions quarterback Jared Goff found a somehow-wide-open Amon-Ra St. Brown in the end zone as time expired, giving the Detroit a 29-27 victory.
Goff and company needed that last-second touchdown despite having held a 20-6 lead at halftime, writing a script that Lions fans have come to know all too well this season. But this time, there was a happy ending for the Detroit faithful, ensuring they won’t be the first team to ever finish a season with an 0-17 record.
