Josh Jacobs stands out in the NFL this season, scoring three rushing touchdowns in a game for the second time, making him the only player to achieve this feat twice. Meanwhile, Tim Patrick has made a significant impact with the Detroit Lions, scoring two touchdowns as his role expands.
The Green Bay Packers faced challenges with receiver Romeo Doubs out due to a concussion, leading to increased snaps for Dontayvion Wicks and Christian Watson. Despite expectations, Jayden Reed struggled to capitalize on the Lions' weak defense against slot receivers.
Patrick's rise in the Lions' offense comes after a slow start, with more consistent playing time following injuries to teammates. The Lions also signed Maurice Alexander, adding depth to their receiving corps.
