Detroit Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown approaching another rookie receiving record

Amon-Ra St. Brown is on the verge of setting more Detroit Lions rookie history.

St. Brown, a fourth-round pick out of USC, needs 15 yards in Sunday's season finale against the Green Bay Packers to break Roy Williams' franchise record for most receiving yards by a rookie.

Williams, the Lions' first-round pick in 2004, had 817 yards on 54 catches in his first season in Detroit.

St. Brown has 803 yards on 82 catches through 16 games this season. He broke Jahvid Best's franchise record for most receptions by a rookie last month.
