David Montgomery - 50 total yards, TD in loss Montgomery rushed 11 times for 40 yards and a touchdown and brought in two of four targets for 10 yards in the Lions' 27-24 loss to the Vikings on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.
Impact Montgomery outpaced Jahmyr Gibbs by two carries and was the only one of the two to get into the end zone, doing so via a two-yard run early in the second quarter. The veteran back also short-circuited a drive in the third quarter, however, as he lost a fumble that was recovered by the Vikings at the Lions' 34-yard line and led to a Minnesota touchdown five plays later. Montgomery and Gibbs figure to continue in their usual timeshare when the Lions face the Commanders on the road in Week 10.

Jameson Williams - Bonces back from blanking Williams brought in four of six targets for 66 yards and a touchdown in the Lions' 27-24 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.
Impact Williams had been surprisingly shut out altogether during the Lions' Week 7 win over the Buccaneers, but after some bye-week chatter from the coaching staff about making it a priority to get him the ball, the fleet-footed wideout delivered a solid performance. Williams' yardage total tied for his second highest of the campaign, and his 37-yard touchdown down the left sideline that he finished with a full extension was his third of the season. Williams will have a positive outlook going into a Week 10 road matchup against the Commanders, who'll enter their Week 9 Sunday night matchup against the Seahawks allowing an NFL-high 12.0 yards per completion.
NOVEMBER 3, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Sam LaPorta - Season-best effort in win LaPorta brought in six of eight targets for 97 yards and a touchdown in the Lions' 27-24 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.
Impact LaPorta tied for the team lead in receiving yards with a total that was also a season-high figure, and he checked in second in both receptions and targets. The talented tight end also rang up his third touchdown of the season -- all which have come within the last four games -- on a 40-yard grab to close out the opening possession of the contest. LaPorta has a solid 35-436-3 receiving line and at least five catches in three of the past four games heading into a Week 10 road matchup against the Commanders.

Jared Goff - Solid day in loss Goff completed 25 of 37 passes for 284 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions in the Lions' 27-24 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.
Impact The Lions' offense wasn't as efficient as usual, but Goff still finished with a fantasy-friendly stat line while working around five sacks. The veteran signal-caller facilitated a pair of 97-yard efforts for Sam LaPorta and Amon-Ra St. Brown, and he connected with LaPorta and Jameson Williams for scoring tosses of 40 and 37 yards, respectively. Goff's yardage total was his second highest of the season, and he's now thrown multiple touchdown passes in four of the last five games heading into a Week 10 road matchup against the Commanders.

Jahmyr Gibbs - Contained on 12 touches in loss Gibbs rushed nine times for 25 yards and brought in all three targets for three yards in the Lions' 27-24 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.
Impact Gibbs' final line underscores the stellar job the Vikings defense managed to do containing him all afternoon, and the third-year pro's yardage totals were both his second lowest of the season. Ironically, Gibbs was coming out of the Week 8 bye after putting together his best game of the season (218 total yards and two rushing TDs) versus the Buccaneers in Week 7, and he'll look to revert to that caliber of production in a Week 10 road matchup against the Commanders.
