GREEN BAY, Wis. — The Detroit Lions were eliminated from the NFL playoffs Sunday in heart-breaking fashion, and a few players fans are familiar with made the key plays.
Quandre Diggs had the game-turning interception on a deep ball in overtime, and then rookie and former Michigan State standout Kenneth Walker III ran hard to set up the Seattle Seahawks' winning field goal to clip the Los Angeles Rams, 19-16, in Seattle on Sunday afternoon.
The Lions (8-8) will miss the postseason for the sixth consecutive season, but can knock Green Bay out of the playoffs with a win on Sunday Night Football and send Seattle to San Francisco as the seventh and final seed in the NFC.
