Detroit Lions
D.J. Chark significantly opened up the passing game: The Lions got the version of Chark they thought they were signing this offseason, as he finished with five catches for 98 yards in the blowout victory over the Jaguars. Chark was slowly playing his way back into the lineup after recovering from an ankle injury that landed him on injured reserve.
Because of Chark, Amon-Ra St. Brown was able to have an easy day against Jacksonville – 11 catches for 114 yards and two touchdowns – and Jameson Williams got his feet wet in his debut.
The Lions pass catchers are even more dangerous with Chark healthy. He showed the value he brings to the passing game.
