Lions' Jahmyr Gibbs, Amon-Ra St. Brown score exciting TDs vs. Vikings

MINNEAPOLIS -- After falling behind 10-0, running back Jahmyr Gibbs gave the Detroit Lions a much-needed lift with a 45-yard rushing touchdown, the longest of his career.

He exploded down the field after juking Vikings safety Camryn Bynum with a cutback to find the end zone behind a goal-line block from receiver Jameson Williams .

Gibbs' touchdown came on the series after his backfield mate David Montgomery was helped off the field with a knee injury, though the veteran returned soon thereafter.

Detroit's offense continued to find a groove as All-Pro receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown broke free up the middle for a 35-yard receiving touchdown from Jared Goff to give the Lions a 14-10 edge at 8:39 in the second quarter.

It was St. Brown's fourth straight game with a touchdown, which is tied for the second-longest streak of his career.

With those explosive plays, the Lions have multiple 30-yard touchdowns in a quarter for the first time since Sept. 14, 2008, versus Green Bay, per ESPN Research.
