Detroit Lions veteran wide receiver Tim Patrick caught six passes for 43 yards and two touchdowns, including the go-ahead score in the 4th quarter as the Lions defeated the Packers 34–31 on Thursday Night Football.
For Patrick, it was a special game and a culmination on what has been a long couple years as he's battled injuries that have kept him off the field entirely. Prior to this season, Patrick had not suited up in an NFL game since the 2021 season, but he's proven to be a key veteran piece in the receiving room for Detroit, and his work ethic in getting back onto the field paid off in a big way on Thursday.
