Exploring Best-and-Worst-PFF-Graded Lions After Colts Victory
The Detroit Lions secured their first preseason victory in several years, when the team held on for the 27-26 victory on the road against the Indianapolis Colts.
Head coach Dan Campbell expressed postgame that winning, even in the preseason, must become part of the young team's DNA.
"Coach was referencing a bunch of different stuff, no matter what you’re playing, dominoes, spades, whatever, it just feels good to win," wide receiver Tom Kennedy said postgame, via the Free Press. "And, I think as a group, as a team, we got to learn that feeling and feel how that feels. So, I’m glad we got this one. Obviously, we wish we had the one back last week. But, it was great to get this one today."
