T.J. Hockenson flexes after a catch.
The Detroit
Lions should have won during Week 1 of their NFL season, but they’re
wasting little time flexing their offensive muscle in Week 2.
Early
on against the Green Bay Packers, the Lions got a huge catch and run by
tight end T.J. Hockenson to help set them up and keep them on the move. Hockenson
was initially bottled up on the play in the second level, but used his leg
drive and strength to press forward and pick up extra yardage.

A few plays later, the Lions paid things off
by ramming Kerryon Johnson into the end zone for an early 7-0 lead. Detroit
would yield a field goal on their next defensive drive, but manage to maintain
the lead early on in the first quarter.
Hockenson put up 56 yards and a score last week, and has looked like one of the team’s top emerging weapons. If the Lions can keep feeding Hockenson, he will make their offense tough to stop.
