DETROIT -- The Detroit Lions defeated the Las Vegas Raiders 26-14 on Monday night at Ford Field.

Rookie running back Jahmyr Gibbs had a breakout performance, amassing 189 yards and a touchdown on 31 touches as Detroit shook off a loss at the Baltimore Ravens and improved to 6-2 on the season. Las Vegas, with the loss, fell to 3-5.

Raiders defensive back Marcus Peters cut an early Lions lead to two points with a pick-six early in the third quarter, but Gibbs answered with a 27-yard touchdown three possessions later to put the game away for good.
