The Detroit Lions have scored their first touchdown of the 2024 season. It was running back Jahmyr Gibbs who did the honors of breaking the end zone seal for Detroit in the Week 1 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams.
Gibbs lurched up the middle on 2nd-and-goal from the 1-yard line just after the two-minute warning.
The play was correctly changed to a touchdown upon official review. Gibbs kept his body from touching the ground until the ball eked across the goal line just as Gibbs’ shoulder hit the turf. It gave the Lions a 10-3 lead over the Rams.
Here’s how it looked:
