Former Denver Broncos wide receiver Tim Patrick had a big game on Thursday Night Football, scoring two touchdowns in the Detroit Lions’ 34-31 win over the Green Bay Packers.
Here’s a sampling of how Twitter reacted to Patrick’s big game.
Heartwarming: #Lions QB Jared Goff made sure to find and give Tim Patrick his first touchdown ball since 2021.
Goff is the definition of CLASS.

Hard to imagine a player more deserving of a 2-touchdown night for all the work heβs put in to get back to this point than Tim Patrick.
