After enduring a trying first three NFL seasons, Detroit Lions offensive lineman Penei Sewell let the world know just how eager his team is to make a statement following Sunday’s landmark playoff win.
Detroit’s emotional 24–23 wild card victory over Matthew Stafford and the Los Angeles Rams marked the club’s first postseason triumph in 32 years, and a turning point for the Lions and Sewell, the seventh overall pick in 2021.
When asked how good it felt to celebrate a historic night, Sewell reflected on the Lions’ rise from pretender to contender before issuing an epic statement about his team’s approach going forward.
