Jared Goff, QB (DET)

Does just enough in OT win during opener

Goff completed 26 of 39 passes for 206 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 31-30 overtime win over the Saints. He added two yards on two carries.

Both of Goff's TD passes went to Amon-Ra St. Brown, while Jahmyr Gibbs scored on a pair of one-yard runs. The Lions' offense may have gotten a little narrower in the offseason when David Montgomery left for the Texans, but that shouldn't affect the QB's production after throwing for at least 4,500 yards and 30 touchdowns in each of the last three seasons. Goff will now shift his focus to the Bills for a Week 2 road game.

Disappoints during second training camp

TeSlaa will enter the season as the Lions' No. 3 receiver despite a poor showing during training camp and going without a reception on three targets over 44 snaps during his two preseason appearances, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports. "I'm not too concerned," wide receivers coach Scottie Montgomery said last week, regarding TeSlaa's lackluster camp. "I do want our guys making every single play. And we did hold him accountable for some of the things that went on, and that's the difference in being in the room and being outside of the room."
