Detroit Lions: 5 players who roared against the Bucs

The Detroit Lions got their first win of the Matt Patricia era on Friday night. The Lions faced off against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in their third preseason matchup of the year.

After being down 27-6 midway through the third quarter, Detroit rallied back to win the ballgame 33-30, scoring 20 points in the final frame. Following the exhibition, here are five Lions who really stood out to me in the contest.

LeGarrette Blount, Running Back

Racking up 45 rushing yards on 11 carries, Blount displayed the power-running style the Lions desperately need in order to convert those short-yardage plays.
