After a tough loss at home to the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 1 of the NFL season, the Detroit Lions are looking to bounce back in Week 2. And they will get their chance with another NFC East opponent coming to town—the Washington Commanders.
By all accounts, Washington isn’t the most talented team in the league—but they are coming off of a 28-22 win against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Despite already being down multiple starters, their defensive front is still scary, and they showed it last week to the tune of three sacks, eight quarterback hits, and 18 hurries on Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence.
