Top 15 NFL rookies: Week 2 (8. LB MALCOLM RODRIGUEZ, DETROIT LIONS (74.2): Rodriguez isn’t simply standing out for a rookie; he’s standing out among all starting linebackers. Through two weeks, his 76.7 overall grade ranks 10th among starting linebackers. Rodriguez racked up four more defensive stops against the Commanders in Week 2.): https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-rookies-15-highest-graded-week-2-2022
10 most surprising performances from NFL Week 2 (G DAN SKIPPER, DETROIT LIONS: The key to building a winning culture in the NFL is having lesser-known players step up and perform well. That was the case for the Lions on Sunday, as they were decimated by injuries along the offensive line. That forced 6-foot-10 offensive tackle Dan Skipper to slot in at left guard, a position he never played in the NFL or in college. Skipper is a 28-year-old undrafted free agent signed and waived by the Dallas Cowboys in 2017. Since entering the NFL, he had played just 166 snaps before Sunday. But he was on the field for 68 snaps in Week 2, finishing with a solid 66.8 grade. Skipper did allow a few pressures and a sack that came on a delayed stunt. But he was fantastic in the run game as the Lions ran for 191 yards. After the game, head coach Dan Campbell presented Skipper with the game ball for his admirable performance. Skipper will likely return to the bench once Jonah Jackson returns from his injury. But this was an impressive performance from a journeyman offensive lineman.): https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-10-most-surprising-performances-nfl-week-2-2022

Schein's 9 biggest Week 2 takeaways: Pickett time? (6. NOT the same old Lions - This goes well beyond the Hard Knocks hype. Dan Campbell and his brilliant coaching staff have established a culture -- and true accountability -- in Detroit. This is something we haven't seen from the Lions (1-1) in quite some time. They fight -- and on Sunday, they won! I was impressed with how they went about getting the W, too. After Detroit took a 22-0 lead into the half, Washington (1-1) responded with the first 15 points of the third quarter. This is where the old Lions -- the Lions we've become accustomed to over the decades -- would've collapsed. But no! Detroit kept answering back and ultimately prevailed, 36-27. Amon-Ra St. Brown was sensational with nine catches 116 yards and two scores, also adding 68 rushing yards for good measure. Rookie edge rusher Aidan Hutchinson had three first-half sacks. And Jared Goff threw four touchdown passes against zero interceptions. You're seeing it, right? These are not the laughingstock Lions.): https://www.nfl.com/news/nfl-week-2-takeaways-mcdaniel-s-dolphins-explode-lance-less-49ers-won-t-implode-
First Read: 3 winners, 3 losers heading into Week 3 (THREE UP - 3. St. Brown: It’s hard to identify a more intense receiver in the league than this guy. St. Brown plays every game with a feisty attitude that is indicative of the identity the Detroit Lions are cultivating. The second-year standout had 184 total yards (116 receiving) and two scores in Sunday’s win over Washington. The Lions benefitted from strong performances from several players -- rookie defensive end Aidan Hutchinson had three sacks, for one -- but it’s clear St. Brown has become a reliable go-to guy for this offense.): https://www.nfl.com/news/the-first-read-week-3-49ers-well-positioned-in-topsy-turvy-nfc-with-jimmy-garopp
