FOXBORO — Making his first NFL start on ‘Throwback Sunday’ at Gillette Stadium, New England Patriots rookie quarterback Bailey Zappe has done an admirable job in leading the Pats offense in Week 5.
However, it would be safeyy Kyle Dugger that scored the only touchdown of the first half.
After forcing another Detroit punt, the Pats attempted to extend their 6-0 lead. Yet, their momentum would be stalled when receiver Nelson Agholor bobbled a would-be completion into the hands of defensive back DeShon Elliott for an interception.
Detroit quarterback Jared Goff took over at the 50-yard line with great field position.
