Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown put a Green Bay Packers player on skates while scoring a touchdown in the first quarter, and was rewarded with a shower of beer at Lambeau Field.
St. Brown scored the team’s first touchdown on the second drive of the game. Jared Goff found the star receiver wide open and came down with the ball for a score. Detroit took the lead at that point.
St. Brown then celebrated the score by doing its own Lambeau Leap in front of a handful of Lions fans who were sitting in the front row near the back of the end zone. Cameras showed St. Brown jumping into the crowd and a Packers fan pouring beer on the player.
The Lions led the Packers 14-3 after the first quarter. David Montgomery scored a touchdown after St. Brown’s score. It was the wide receiver’s only catch of the period: one catch, one touchdown, 24 yards.
He entered the game with 21 receptions for 275 yards and a touchdown. He had a 1,000-yard receiving year in 2022 and earned his first Pro Bowl nod.
The battle between NFC North rivals was already underway. Both teams entered the game 2-1 and looked to build on an early season matchup.
