Gibbs' 78-yard TD, 218 Yards Fuel Lions' 5-2 Win

News summary

Jahmyr Gibbs exploded for a career-high 218 scrimmage yards (136 rushing, 82 receiving) and two rushing touchdowns, including a 78-yard run that was Detroit’s longest rushing score in 14 years, to lead the Lions to a 24-9 Monday Night Football win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The performance made Gibbs the 10th player in NFL history to record at least 135 rushing yards, 80 receiving yards and two rushing TDs in a game, a feat not achieved since 2009. The victory moved Detroit to 5-2 and extended the franchise’s NFL-long streak of 51 regular-season games without consecutive losses, setting up a Week 8 bye. Jared Goff threw a touchdown but committed turnovers, while Tampa Bay’s offense struggled; Baker Mayfield was limited and Mike Evans left with a concussion and a shoulder injury. Detroit’s balanced attack and improved defense provided a bounce-back after a loss to Kansas City.
