The Detroit Lions’ first run-in with a rookie quarterback didn’t go so well. With any luck, their next two meetings will be much better.

The Lions face the second of three rookie signal callers on their schedule Sunday when they visit Josh Rosen and the Arizona Cardinals.

They lost to Sam Darnold and the New York Jets in Week 1, when Darnold threw for 198 yards and two touchdowns.
