Before the Detroit Lions kicked off their Thanksgiving game against the Green Bay Packers, Jared Goff shared a tender family moment that quickly won over fans. Cameras caught the quarterback exchanging a good-luck kiss with his wife, Christen Harper, and their daughter, Romy. The NFL on Fox posted the heartwarming clip, which showed Romy dressed in a charming football-themed outfit as she leaned in for her own kiss.

Despite the touching pregame scene, the holiday matchup didn’t go in Detroit’s favor. The Lions battled hard, but the Packers ultimately came out on top.

The game wasn’t short on controversy either. Just before halftime, Green Bay was initially penalized for a false start, only for officials to retract the call because the Packers’ coach had supposedly requested a timeout beforehand. The reversal frustrated many viewers, including longtime sports commentator Jason Whitlock, who criticized the officiating crew and even mocked their diversity.

There were also memorable on-field highlights, one of which came when Micah Parsons brought down Goff for a sack. Parsons, who has flourished with the Packers since arriving from Dallas, continued to strengthen his legacy—becoming the first player in league history to record at least 12 sacks in each of his first five seasons.

Eminem Delivers a Show-Stopping Thanksgiving Halftime Performance

Thanksgiving in Detroit also featured a star-powered halftime show. Eminem and Jack White energized the stadium, with White performing tracks from his latest album and Eminem firing up the crowd with “’Till I Collapse.’” The atmosphere peaked when White launched into “Seven Nation Army,” accompanied by an impressive routine from the Lions cheerleaders. Eminem’s daughter, Hailie, was in attendance with her child and shared a video of her vantage point as her father took the stage.

While Detroit’s Thanksgiving show was widely praised, attention has already shifted to the upcoming Super Bowl halftime performance. Puerto Rican artist Bad Bunny is slated to headline, a choice that has stirred mixed reactions among fans—some of whom have publicly stated they plan to skip the performance altogether.
