The 2021 Detroit Lions rookie class ended the season on a high note with a 37-30 win over the Green Bay Packers on Sunday.
The Lions faced their fair share of adversity throughout the season, which in turn made them rely on many of their rookie players to take on larger roles.
This remained true for their season finale, as Detroit utilized 13 first-year players in their victory over Green Bay.
Wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown has become the focal point of the Lions’ offense. Not only did he make franchise history by recording the most receptions by a rookie, he put his name down in NFL history books as one of three rookie receivers to record the stats that he’s put up over this half of the season.
