The Detroit Lions are set to face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a crucial matchup, with both teams looking to continue their strong performances.

Last week, the Lions secured a dramatic overtime victory over the Rams, coming back from a 17-3 deficit to demonstrate their grit.

Cornerback Terrion Arnold has been impressive, notching eight tackles and receiving commendation from Rams’ top receiver Cooper Kupp.

His performance will be essential in the game against the Buccaneers.

On the offensive side, running back David Montgomery and receiver Jameson Williams are key to sustaining a balanced attack.

However, there’s concern about right tackle Penei Sewell, who sustained an ankle injury during practice.

If Sewell is unavailable, Colby Sorsdal or Dan Skipper is expected to fill in.

Defensive tackle DJ Reader is poised to make his debut for the Lions, though his playing time remains uncertain.

Coach Campbell highlighted that Reader’s health and effectiveness will be crucial for bolstering the defense.
