Anthony Lynn figured the Detroit Lions had a good chance to connect on the pass for a touchdown on the final play of last week's win over the Minnesota Vikings, long before they lined up for the snap.
"We felt that way going into the game, absolutely," Lynn said Thursday. "I don’t think Patrick Peterson would have played that far off, but, yeah."
Peterson, a likely future Hall of Fame cornerback, was on the reserve/COVID-19 list for last week's game, leaving the Vikings to start Cameron Dantzler and Bashaud Breeland at outside cornerback.
Dantzler lined up about 10 yards off Lions receiver Amon-Ra St.
