Isaac TeSlaa Catches Third Touchdown of Season on Thanksgiving
Detroit Lions rookie wide receiver Isaac TeSlaa played a bigger role in Week 13 against the Green Bay Packers after Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) left early in the first quarter and did not return. TeSlaa took advantage of his opportunity and finished with two catches (two targets) for 35 yards and a touchdown. He hauled in a 17-yard touchdown from Jared Goff in the third quarter, which is his third career touchdown on six total receptions. The rookie third-round pick out of Arkansas figures to see more opportunities and operate as the WR2 behind Jameson Williams in the short-term, with St. Brown expected to miss one to two weeks and tight end Sam LaPorta (back) on injured reserve. TeSlaa will likely be a hot waiver add for Week 14.

Jameson Williams Explodes for 144 Yards, Touchdown on Thanksgiving
Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams went off on Thanksgiving after Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) left early in the first quarter with an ankle injury, recording seven receptions for 144 yards and a touchdown on 10 targets. Williams was the clear focal point of Detroit's passing offense with St. Brown sidelined, and he delivered with his most targets, receptions, and yards in a game this season. The 24-year-old's touchdown came on what looked like a dead screen play with an unblocked defensive back closing on him, but Williams made him miss and then turned on the jets for a 22-yard score just before halftime. Williams had multiple other explosive chunk gains throughout the game and took advantage of multiple star teammates being sidelined. St. Brown is reportedly expected to miss one to two weeks, which sets Williams up for another strong game in Week 14 against the Dallas Cowboys.

Christian Watson Hauls in Long Touchdown on Thanksgiving
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson secured four of his 10 targets for 80 yards and a touchdown in a 31-24 win over the Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving. Watson had the longest play of the game with a 51-yard touchdown on a beautiful deep ball from Jordan Love in the third quarter. The 26-year-old continues to thrive since returning in Week 7, totaling 21 receptions for 363 yards and three touchdowns on 34 targets, averaging 12.6 PPR points per game. The 2022 second-round pick has operated as Green Bay's WR1 recently, leading the team in routes run over the past three weeks and clearly being their best downfield threat. Watson could have had a bigger day on Thursday, but had a few tough drops. Still, it was another strong outing for Watson, and he projects favorably for the rest of the season.

Dontayvion Wicks Breaks Out for Two Touchdowns on Thanksgiving
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks posted his best game of the season against the Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving, recording six catches for a team-leading 94 yards and two touchdowns on seven targets. Wicks scored for the first time in 10 games this season, and more than doubled his previous season high of 44 receiving yards, which came back in Week 2 against the Washington Commanders. The six receptions also matched a career high for the 24-year-old wideout and played a key role in Green Bay pulling out the win. After having major drop issues last season, Wicks has only dropped one pass on 41 targets this season and came down with multiple tough catches against the Lions, including a crucial contested 16-yard snag on fourth down to seal the victory with less than two minutes left in the game. Wicks is emerging as a reliable target for quarterback Jordan Love and could continue to see more opportunities moving forward.
