Detroit Lions

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery rushed 10 times for 40 yards and a touchdown in the Week 18 victory over the Minnesota Vikings. Montgomery's one-yard touchdown plunge marked his 13th of the season to go along with 1,015 yards rushing. It's been a career year for the 26-year-old, who is under contract in Detroit until at least 2025. Although rookie Jahmyr Gibbs is clearly the RB1 of the future, the two ball-carriers with contrasting styles will likely continue to share touches in 2024.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown caught seven of his 10 targets for 144 yards and a touchdown in the Week 18 win over the Minnesota Vikings. St. Brown was nothing short of spectacular this year, finishing with 119 receptions for 1,515 yards and 10 receiving touchdowns. He'll be an early first-round pick in 2024 fantasy drafts and he's a top-five dynasty wideout. Next up for St. Brown is a home playoff game in his first postseason action of his young career.

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff completed 23 of his 32 passing attempts for 320 yards, two touchdowns, and no interceptions in the Week 18 win over the Minnesota Vikings. The veteran signal-caller's regular season comes to an end with 4,575 passing yards, 30 passing touchdowns, and 12 interceptions. He will finish the 2023 campaign firmly as a QB1, and he likely played well enough this year to remain Detroit's franchise quarterback next year. Next week, he'll lead the Lions in a home playoff game in search of the first postseason win since the 1991 season for the organization.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond (knee) exited during the fourth quarter of Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings and was quickly ruled out. He finishes Week 18 having caught two passes for 50 yards, and he also added 89 punt return yards. All in all, Raymond's final 2023 stat line includes 35 catches, 489 receiving yards, and one receiving touchdown. Moving forward, Raymond will undergo additional testing before the Lions confirm his diagnosis and playoff availability.

Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta (knee) has been downgraded to out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings. He initially exited during the second quarter and was carted to the locker room. There is concern for a serious knee injury here, though additional testing will be required before the Lions provide an official diagnosis. LaPorta's foot appeared to snag the ground while he was being tackled, which led to his knee hyperextending. With both LaPorta and Brock Wright (hip) sidelined, the Lions will turn to James Mitchell as their top tight end.
