Cornerbacks Among Lowest PFF-Graded Lions Against Bucs

The Detroit Lions suffered a crushing loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, falling 20-16.

It was a disappointing defeat, as the team largely outplayed their opponent. Detroit doubled Tampa Bay's offensive total yardage output, but struggles in the red zone ultimately defined the loss. Quarterback Jared Goff was among the lowest-graded players by Pro Football Focus, as he finished with a 49.0 offensive grade.

The defense had a largely solid effort, but the secondary had its difficulties. In particular, Buccaneers receiver Chris Godwin dominated with 117 receiving yards and a touchdown on seven catches. As a result, both of the Lions' cornerbacks were among the lowest-graded players by PFF in Sunday's game.

Rookie Terrion Arnold was the lowest-graded player of any who played at least 10 snaps in Sunday's game, as he finished with a 33.2 mark. He was penalized twice, including his third pass interference infraction in his first two games.
