Lions D/ST force safety in Lions win Sunday

by Josh Thiessen | Lions Correspondent | Mon, Sep 19th 12:08pm EDT

The Lions D/ST forced one safety on Sunday, while also sacking Carson Wentz five times and picking him off once in the teams' 36-27 win over the Commanders.

Fantasy Impact:

The Lions D/ST was terrific on Sunday as the team saw their prized first round pick Aidan Hutchinson pick up three of the times sacks. The defensive unit for the Lions is not one that should be streamed as of yet, especially with their Week 3 tilt against the Vikings coming up, but if the team continues to play like this they may become streamers that are matchup dependent.
