The Detroit Lions will be in the postseason following the 2024 regular season. Detroit ensured that with an exciting 34-31 win over the visiting Green Bay Packers on Thursday Night Football in Week 14.
Now 12-1 after winning their 11th game in a row, the Lions are the first team in the NFC to clinch a postseason berth this season. That’s the first time in the Super Bowl era the Lions have been the first team to clinch, and the Week 14 timeframe is the earliest Detroit has clinched a playoff spot.
Detroit will end Week 14 as the No. 1 seed in the NFC. The Philadelphia Eagles and Minnesota Vikings are both right behind at 10-2, but the Lions control their own destiny for the top seed and the first-round bye.
