The Lions are heading into Sunday’s matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals bruised, beat down, and battered. Their CB1, as it stands right now, is a guy who wasn’t even expected to make the roster during camp: undrafted rookie Jerry Jacobs. He faces the tough task of mirroring one of the league’s hottest young receivers in Ja’Marr Chase.
Bold prediction of the week: Lions hold Ja’Marr Chase to a season low in yards.
Though Amani Oruwariye is considered CB1 for the Lions, Jacobs told reporters on Friday he expects to face Chase a lot on Sunday, perhaps even mirror him.
