Footage from saturday night shows a Detroit Lions fan being badly beaten during the loss to the Washington Commanders.
Washington followed its first playoff win since the 2005 season with a historic divisional upset against Detroit on the road.
Lions head coach Dan Campbell said that Ford Field will be the "loudest" stadium that the Commanders play in this season.
Detroit was able to open the second half with nearly a 6:00 offensive drive that spanned 91 yards. St. Brown and Gibbs led the way, as Detroit trimmed the Commanders' lead to 31-28 midway through the third quarter. Gibbs scored his second touchdown of the game on an 8-yard scamper.
Commanders head coach Dan Quinn would get something close to vindication several drives later when he dialed up a brazen passing play on a fourth-down from the Lions’ nine-yard line.
The Detroit Lions welcome the Washington Commanders to town for the NFC Divisional Round on Saturday, Jan. 18.
The Detroit Lions lost to the Washington Commanders after a series of costly errors in their NFL divisional playoff.
The Lions' defense knew they had a tough task coming in trying to limit Commanders rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels, who will likely be the Offensive Rookie of the Year, and the Lions had few answers defensively for Daniels and the Commanders' fifth-ranked scoring offense all evening.
The Detroit Lions fell victim to Jayden Daniels’ offensive power, as he wasted no time showcasing his talent at Ford Field and took advantage of the opportunity to set a new rookie record in the postseason.
Detroit is getting healthier coming off its well-earned bye week, with both David Montgomery and Terrion Arnold set to return to the lineup. The Lions have home field on their side in this game, and they enter it with a 7-2 record at the friendly confines of Ford Field.
Ford Field topped out at 134.3 decibels during the team’s divisional game last season against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. That mark trails only Kansas City and Seattle for the loudest stadium in the NFL.
