description

As the Lions continued a decades-long tradition by playing football on the last Thursday of November, second-year tight end Sam LaPorta staked his claim for most efficient offensive option for Detroit. Though he caught just three passes for six yards in this one, LaPorta made big plays when it mattered most, catching two touchdown passes in the game, one in the second quarter from three yards out, and another in the third from the one-yard line. LaPorta and the Lions help on during a furious Chicago comeback attempt to win this one, 23-20, on Nov. 28, 2024.
