Lions Motivated By Lack of Respect From Aaron Rodgers, Packers

The Lions and Packers will meet in primetime in Week 18 in a contest that could potentially have playoff implications for both teams. And as the NFC North rivals close in on the high-stakes matchup, Detroit safety DeShon Elliott made it clear on Friday that the team is also hoping to accomplish another goal at Lambeau Field come Sunday.

Elliott, who’s set to return after missing the past two games with a dislocated shoulder, explained to reporters that he and his teammates have drawn extra motivation for the game after feeling disrespected by Aaron Rodgers and the Packers all season.
