The Lions running back had 139 yards and three touchdowns on the ground to go along with 31 yards receiving and another score in the air.

The Lions defeated the Minnesota Vikings (14-3), 31-9, in the first ever regular-season game in NFL history between two teams with 13-plus wins apiece. The victory earned the Lions the NFC’s No. 1 seed and a first-round bye in the playoffs. It’s the first time in franchise history the Lions have earned the No. 1 seed in the postseason.

Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs gained only one yard on his first six carries of the game, but all he needed was one big play to take it to the house. With 1:43 left in the first quarter, Gibbs exploded through the middle for a 25-yard rushing touchdown to give Detroit a 7-0 lead over the Minnesota Vikings.
