The Detroit Lions were able to secure a comeback victory against the Kansas City Chiefs in their second preseason contest of 2024.
Offensively, wideout Isaiah Williams continued his solid training camp, earning a PFF grade of 76.6.
Others in the top 5 (minimum of 10 snaps) included Jemarco Jones, Hendon Hooker, Tom Kennedy and Zonovan Knight.
Donovan Peoples-Jones (51.1) and Nate Sudfeld (50.5) were among the lowest-graded Lions on offense.
Defensively, Josh Paschal had a solid performance in his return (78.7). The former Kentucky Wildcats defensive lineman forced pressures and helped to secure a turnover, when he forced a strip sack in the fourth-quarter against Kansas City.
Interestingly, Mathieu Betts was among the lowest-graded defenders (39.0), despite recording a sack and showcasing his high-energy motor and pass-rush abilities.

Wideout feared to have long-term injury
After a tough week battling injuries, the Lions had one receiver suffer a significant injury against the Chiefs.
“Tre’Quan Smith is the one player that could be out for a little while,” Dan Campbell explained. “He had a hand injury. Everything else, I think we’ll be okay long term.”
Dan Skipper, who had his ankle rolled up on early in the game, is not expected to miss action for a significant period of time.
