Marvin Jones in midst of breakout receiving season Lions need

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- After Detroit Lions receiver Marvin Jones caught his first touchdown of the season Monday night, and after he held onto the ball throughout his team's "Rock 'Em, Sock 'Em Robots" celebration, he did something he rarely does. He gave the ball up.

Jones keeps all his NFL touchdowns -- regular season, playoffs and even the six he has caught in preseason games. They mean something to him. The big games he's had in the past, those often blur into his memory. But those touchdown balls -- those matter.

Except Monday night, when he caught Matthew Stafford's 200th career touchdown pass.
