Toward the end of last year, it seems the Detroit Lions realized the full potential of rookie wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown. Not only was St. Brown wildly productive in that final stretch of games—which led him to winning Rookie of the Month in December—but Detroit found creative ways to use him. He was lined up all over the field, used as a decoy, was integral in some trick plays, and also just played the slot receiver role like a veteran.
One interesting way the Lions used St. Brown was in the backfield. Though he only carried the ball seven times all season, he was very effective doing so, rushing for 61 yards and a touchdown on those attempts.
