The 2022 season ended in disappointment for Aaron Rodgers and the Packers on Sunday Night Football as the club was eliminated from playoff contention following a 20–16 home loss to the Lions.
Needing a win to secure the NFC’s final playoff berth, the Packers attempted to erase the deficit late in the fourth quarter, but the comeback bid was ultimately cut short after Rodgers was intercepted by Lions safety Kerby Joseph on a third-and-10 deep ball to receiver Christian Watson. Detroit was able to pick up three first downs and run out the clock from there.
