One play into the second quarter, the Lions have dug into their Thanksgiving dinner first with a 3-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Jared Goff to tight end Sam LaPorta.

After being held to just 19 yards last week against the Colts, LaPorta is back on the board. He may only have five yards after that catch, but with nearly three full quarters to play, LaPorta is in good position to surpass last week’s total.
