The Detroit Lions played a hard-nosed game against the Minnesota Vikings but couldn’t pull out a win. Unfortunately, they were also without much of their rookie class. Only three rookies took snaps for Detroit against Minnesota and none of them made much of a splash.
While he didn’t make many big game-changing plays, Malcolm Rodriguez got the start once again at linebacker and was quietly productive for the Lions. The sixth-round rookie led the team in tackles at the end of the first half with six.
