Detroit Lions vs. San Francisco 49ers: Who gets the game ball? It always feels weird handing out figurative Game Balls when the Detroit Lions put up a subpar performance Womens Nick Bellore Jersey , but the entire point of this weekly article is to recognize players that are performing well, whether the rest of the team is keeping up or not.The Lions did not play well as a team against the 49ers, but there were more good individual play than there was last week.

The Lions linebacker remains both one of the best pass rushers on the team and one of the better edge setters, as well. For a player that entered the season with just 9.5 sacks in four years, Kennard looks like the kind of player that was just waiting for the right coaching. He already has 3.0 sacks in two games. Kenny GolladayStats: 6 catches Womens Marvin Jones Jr Jersey , 89 yards, 1 TDNotice a pattern yet? Golladay built off a strong Week 1 performance with another solid game against the 49ers. His touchdown was a thing of beauty not only because of the play he made after the catch, but look at the way he sells the play action so convincingly:That’s some impressive stuff from a second-year player. Slowly, Golladay appears to be budding into an all-around talent.LeGarrette BlountStats: 8 carries, 38 yards; 1 catch, -3 yardsLet’s put his ejection aside for the moment, as everyone seems to disagree about whether it was a good or bad thing, but Blount’s day was much better than his statline suggests.Three of his eight carries earned first downs, and many of his yards came after first contact. He was a big reason there is still optimism surround the Lions’ running game, another big reason is...Kerryon JohnsonStats: 8 carries, 43 yards; 5 catches Womens Miles Killebrew Jersey , 23 yardsWith an increased workload, the Lions’ second-round pick rose to the occasion. Not only did Johnson average an impressive 5.4 yards per carry on just eight rushes, but he proved valuable as a receiver. Through two games, only three players have more receptions than Johnson: Kenny Golladay, Golden Tate and Theo Riddick. If the trend continues, the Lions may not have to wait much longer to get that 100-yard rusher monkey off their back.Da’Shawn HandStats: 5 tackles, 1 tackle for lossIt’s hard to get too excited over any performance from the defensive line when they produced zero sacks combined and were part of the Lions’ very troubling run defense problem, but Da’Shawn Hand has now been a bright spot in two consecutive games:Before you know it, this guy is going to be a starter, if he isn’t considered one already.VOTE: The Lions could be looking to add a young, versatile safety."WhiteFanposts Fanshots Sections Detroit Lions NewsDetroit Lions NotesDetroit Lions AnalysisDetroit Lions TransactionsDetroit Lions Game RecapsBreaking NewsIntroducing the 2019 Detroit Lions Draft Class! 脳NFL Free AgencyDetroit Lions NewsDetroit Lions Free AgencyReport: Lions hosting safety Andrew Adams New Womens Devon Kennard Jersey ,58commentsThe Lions could be looking to add a young, versatile safety. EDTShareTweetShareShareReport: Lions hosting safety Andrew Adams Jonathan Dyer-USA TODAY SportsThe Detroit Lions are certainly not done in free agency, and their first reported free agency visit has been revealed. According to the Detroit Free Press’ Dave Birkett, the Lions are hosting former Buccaneers safety Andrew Adams for a visit on Thursday.Adams is a young player (26), who has worked his way up from being an undrafted prospect out of UConn—where, as Dave notes, he played under Paul Pasqualoni—to a significant contributor in all three of his years in the NFL.He started out with the New York Giants, playing in 30 games over his first two seasons. Over that time, he started 17 games, amassed 80 tackles, notched seven passes defended and tallied his first interception. However Kerryon Johnson Jersey , he lost the camp battle for a spot on the Giants roster in 2018.Last year, Adams snuck onto the Buccaneers’ roster in late September, and made his arrival known in December, when he picked off Cam Newton three times in a single game. Adams certainly fits the Lions’ buzz word of “versatility,” as he’s basically evenly split his time as a box or free safety over the past two seasons. His rookie year he was mostly in the free safety role, where his quickness and ability to read quarterbacks were showcased. However, his physicality has made him an option as more of a box safety lately. With the Lions parting ways with Glover Quin a few weeks ago and Tavon Wilson looming as a potential cap casualty, Adams could slide in and be Detroit’s third safety, floating around wherever the Lions see fit.
