In a surprising turn of events, Lions running backs Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery failed to score for the first time since Week 6 of 2023. Despite this, both players had solid performances, with Montgomery leading in carries and rushing yards, while Gibbs showcased his efficiency on limited touches. The Lions opted to utilize tight end Sam LaPorta in goal-line situations, which may have contributed to the RBs' lack of touchdowns.
